In a bid to restore the 'honour' of their tribe, two men in
Bhong area of Rahim Yar Khan allegedly murdered two sisters after they had
reportedly been abducted and subjected to rape by some influential landlords.
According to local police, the deceased sisters were first
abducted and raped by a group of men and later fell victim to their own
relatives' wrath when they returned home.
The abduction purportedly took place in Basti Gulab Khan of
Mouza Muhammad Murad Dahir area on Sunday when Shah Mureed Kharu and Ali Dost
Kharu, the two accused, allegedly kidnapped the siblings, one of whom was 18,
and the other 20.
The victims' father claimed in the first information report
(FIR) that the suspects had abducted his daughters and abused them before
releasing them a day later.
The father said that he was also fearful that the members of
their tribe could kill his daughters upon their return for having "smeared
the tribe's name".
When the girls returned home following their ordeal, the
father said, their uncle Muhammad Saleem and another relative Shah Nawaz
allegedly strung a noose around their necks and dragged them to the nearby
fields.
The father said that by the time he reached the crime scene,
the girls had already been murdered.
The dead bodies were shifted to Sadiqabad THQ Hospital for
autopsies.
