LAHORE: The Gujjar Pura police lodged a gang-rape case on the complaint of a woman and formed a team to arrest the suspects nominated in the FIR.

The woman, M, alleged in the FIR that the incident took place some weeks back when three suspects took her to fields, where they allegedly gang-raped her.

Giving the reason for the delay in filing the complaint, she said the alleged rapists had been threatening her of dire consequences if she reported the matter to the police.

A police official says the case has been referred to the investigation police for the arrest of the suspects, who were still at large.
