Just had a very sad conversation of the victims in Lahore rape incident. The story is heartbreaking and gives goosebumps. @ImranKhanPTI and @UsmanAKBuzdar must show zero tolerance in this case. The educated girl has travelled on this route frequently in the past. 1/6
The woman was at family friend's home.They advised her repeatesky not to go at that hour but she had travelled this route regularly, finding it safe. What came as a surprise was the finishing of petrol. She immediately called the motorway police emergency line when car stopped2/6
The police took her location. She was aware of her situation, so she locked her windows and doors. Two men (demons) appeared out of nowhere and started threatening her, they had long sticks and heavy stones, she screamed but could not move her car, they smashed the car windows3/6
They beat her up badly. In the fight, they used punches and fists and beat up the kids, the beasts grabbed the little children and ran away, she ran after them for the sake of her children. The motorway police finally reached and found her car with blood and smashed windows..
They then informed local police.The woman was badly bruised, swollen feet and bleeding head and so were the children. The family who went to retrieve them from police station said they were all muddy and completely terrorised. They did not talk for hours. The children were numb.
The children could nkt talk for hours
They kept crying. She was inconsolable.The family tried their best to put them to sleep. "There were deserts lingering in the children's eyes", said the family member. "I had seen kids laughing only hours ago, now they were like ghosts".

"We told her to be strong for her children or children would never recover ", said the family friend. I just want to say to the #CCPOLahore that now his "surprise" should subside that it was a person who was caught in tragic situation, it was his police's duty to help her.
Therefore instead of expressing "utter surprise " why the woman was there in the first place, the #CCPOLahore should have worried why his police force failed to protect a mother. Today, all women in Pakistan are feeling unsafe. That is a failure of the Police.
Instead of wondering about the reasons why the woman was out...the #CCPOLahore should have wondered...how come two dacoits appeared minutes after her calling the police? Was the police helping the davoits? In the past, this has happened.
Both men were wearing identical brown shalwar kameez. #RemoveCCPOLahore
Tbe family of the victim clarified there was no personal enemy, it was a clear case of law and order mishap. #motorwayincident
