Details of the FIR and Allegations

According to the statement given by stage actress Arooj in the police record, the suspect initially approached her under the guise of friendship and offered her work in a local stage drama.

  • The suspect invited her to his home under professional pretexts.
  • He allegedly mixed a stupefying substance into a beverage and served it to her.
  • After she lost consciousness due to the drugged juice, the suspect allegedly committed the sexual assault.
  • The victim further stated that the accused also filmed a naked video of her during the assault to use as leverage for ongoing blackmail.

Law enforcement authorities in Lahore have initiated a formal probe following the registration of the FIR under relevant sections of the Pakistan Penal Code concerning rape, drugging, and blackmail. Investigators are currently gathering physical evidence and preparing to apprehend the suspect, who remains at large as of reporting time.
