District police officer Waqas Rafiqe said that life, honour and protection of children were their top priority, adding that police were always proactive in preventing such serious crimes.

He appealed to the parents to be vigilant for the safety of their children and immediately report any suspicious activity to the nearby police station or police helpline. “We cannot perform our duties without your trust and cooperation,” he said.
