RAWALPINDI: Police on Saturday arrested a couple for sexually assaulting minor girls and filming their explicit videos to blackmail them.
According to City Police Officer (CPO) Muhammad Faisal Rana, the suspects, a man and his wife, confessed to raping as many as 45 minors and filming their heinous acts.
Videos of 10 minor girls and thousands of nude photographs were recovered from the suspects’ custody, he said, adding that the couple in question used to sell the explicit videos and photographs to pornography websites for a large sum of money.
The CPO further said the computer used by the suspects has been sent for forensic analysis to confirm the suspects’ links with the websites where they uploaded the nude videos.
“There could be two motives: first, to blackmail the victims to get money; second, to supply videos of young girls to international sex traders and bloggers,” the CPO said, adding that the forensic examination of the computer would offer more information into the matter.
Police officials further said the wife of the main accused assisted him in filming the trapped girls. The couple was tracked and arrested following a complaint lodged by a girl with the CPO Rawalpindi.
According to the police, the girl, who is a student of MSc, said in her statement that the couple lured her into their car and took her to a house where she was raped and filmed. (INP)
