SAHIWAL — In a alarming string of events, four young schoolgirls—including two biological sisters—were abducted from different areas within the jurisdiction of Sahiwal police. Following immediate tracking and swift raids, law enforcement officials successfully rescued one of the girls and apprehended four suspects, while a manhunt remains underway for the remaining culprits.
According to police sources, the abductions took place across three separate incidents:
Incident 1: Two Sisters Abducted on Way to Madrassa
The first incident occurred in Bhutto Nagar, within the limits of the Farid Town Police Station. Two daughters of a local milk vendor—identified as 16-year-old (R) and her 9-year-old sister (F)—were walking to a religious seminary (madrassa) to study the Holy Quran. Along the way, unidentified armed men intercepted the young sisters, forced them into a vehicle at gunpoint, and fled the scene.
Incident 2: Dawn House Invasion
The second kidnapping was reported in Chak 88/6-R, under the jurisdiction of the Fateh Sher Police Station. At around 3:00 AM, while the victim, (K), was asleep in her home, armed suspects identified as Muhammad Ramadan, Sajid, and Amna Manzoor Nambardar, along with an unidentified woman named Hajra, forcefully broke into the house. They bundled the girl into a Carry Van and sped away.
Incident 3: Broad Daylight Abduction
The third incident unfolded in Asadullah Pur, within the Bahadur Shah Police Station limits. A 14-year-old girl, (A), was abducted directly from her residence by multiple suspects identified as Zaman, Muhammad Ali, Sana, Ali Kako, and Ashraf Sidi Ahmed Sheikh. The perpetrators confined her to a Carry Van before escaping.
Police Response and Legal Action
Following complaints lodged by the distressed citizens—Ghulam Qadir, Shamshid Ali, and Allah Wasaya—the Sahiwal Police promptly registered three separate First Information Reports (FIRs). The cases have been filed under Section 365-B of the Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) at the Fateh Sher, Farid Town, and Bahadur Shah police stations.
Current Status: Activated by the gravity of the crimes, police teams launched immediate coordinated raids. Consequently, law enforcement successfully recovered one of the abducted schoolgirls safely and placed four suspects under arrest.
Police authorities have confirmed that heavy raids are continuously being conducted to track down the remaining absconding suspects and safely recover the rest of the missing girls. Officials vowed that all perpetrators involved in these heinous crimes will be brought to justice swiftly.
