1 min read

SAHIWAL: A 16-year-old TikToker boy was allegedly gang-raped by four men after being forced to consume drug at Chak 90/9-L, tehsil Sahiwal.

According to police, the victim had lost his father years ago and was living with his widowed mother. Fond of using his mobile phone, he regularly uploaded videos on his TikTok account.

About a month ago, he received a call from a man, identified in the first information report (FIR), who promised to make him a TikTok star. Their conversations continued, leading to a meeting at the Old Sabzi Mandi yesterday.

The man took him to a house at Chak 90/9-L for further discussion. There, the boy was allegedly forced to consume a drug through shisha by the man and his accomplice at gunpoint. Later, two more suspects joined them. They snatched the boy’s mobile phone and administered him with an intoxicant in a soft drink.

The victim said that after becoming intoxicated, he was raped by all four suspects. Later, they fled, leaving him unconscious. The boy narrated his ordeal to his mother who approached Ghala Mandi Police.

A case was registered against all the four identified suspects, residents of Sahiwal city, under Section 376(iii) and Section 176A of the PPC.
