‘Missing’ child raped, murdered
ISLAMABAD: The case of a child missing from Sector G-9 a week ago has been solved by the capital police as the accused arrested for kidnapping the child has confessed his murder after raping him, it was found during the investigation, while the body was recovered on Tuesday.
Muhammad Anwar, a schoolteacher and resident of G-9/4 sector, registered an FIR (166) in Margalla police station on March 26 complaining that his child Imran Anwar, aged four-and-a-half-year was playing outside his home at 5pm but when he came back from maghrib prayers he found his son missing. He feared that his son might have been kidnapped.
After two days of Imran’s being missing, Anwar received a text message form an unidentified number, demanding Rs 700,000 as ransom for his missing son, which Anwar reported to the police immediately. SHO Irshad Ali Abro of the Margalla police station said that the text message and the amount demanded by the accused for ransom helped the police to reach him.
“Normally kidnappers demand a high amount but the amount demanded in the current case confirmed that the kidnapper is not a proclaimed offender but someone around the victim family,” the police officer said. He further said that the police traced the number by which the text message was sent which helped to arrest Fazal Rehman who, during the investigation, confessed that he murdered the minor after raping him.
After his statement, the police rushed to the place and recovered the distorted body of the minor Imran. The body of the diseased was sent to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences for post mortem on Tuesday night. “Fazal was living in the neighbourhood of the diseased and on March 26 he took him to a jungle near his home where he raped the minor and then murdered him by crushing his head with a stone. He placed his body near a drain in the jungle,” the SHO said.
He further said that the body remained in the jungle for a week but no one noticed it as its smell mixed with the drain’s smell. He said the accused was under seven days remand on the charges of 302 for murder and 345-A for kidnapping for ransom.
