DADU, Jan 9: The criminally assaulted girl, N.B., 17, was discharged from the Mehar taluka hospital on Thursday.

The girl was criminally assaulted by five landlords at gunpoint in her house near Dhamrah Wah over three days ago.

Talking to this correspondent, the victim of the criminal assault complained about the apathy of the police, saying that the police had failed to conduct even a single raid against the accused.

She said that the accused, Abdul Latif, Murad Khan, Gul Hassan, Wali Mohammad Shahnawaz and Rustam Khoso, who wield considerable clout in the area, were being protected by the local police.

She deplored that the Thrariri Mohabbat police had done nothing after registering the FIR against the accused.

She complained that the accused, in connivance with the police were forcing her parents to withdraw the case against them.

She also said that despite the passage of three days to the event, neither the Nazim nor any senior police official had visited her house to offer help.

Both the victim of the assault and her father threatened to commit suicide, along with their family members, if the accused were not arrested and if they were denied justice.

They appealed President Gen Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Mir Zafarullah to direct the IGP, Sindh, and the AIGP, Hyderabad, for the early arrest of the accused.

Meanwhile, the medical officer of the Mehar taluka hospital, Dr Mah Talat, said that a biopsy of the girl had been conducted and it had been sent to the Civil Hospital, Karachi, for examination. She said that she would finalize her report after she received the examination report from Karachi.
