Kamran Khalid, the paternal uncle, and Rashid, the maternal uncle, were earlier arrested by the police for allegedly sexually assaulting the victims.
Meanwhile, the children’s parents, Jibran Khalid and Sonia Shabnam, have filed an application with the District and Sessions Judge Rawalpindi, requesting that the children’s statements regarding the abuse be recorded under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC). The Sessions Judge has assigned the application to the duty judge to facilitate this.
On Friday, the children’s parents and their lawyer, Muhammad Akram Advocate, informed the duty judge that the father works in Dubai, and the mother also holds a private job.
They detailed how Ahmed, 11, was repeatedly abused by his uncles Kamran Khalid, and Rashid.
