A disturbing incident unfolded in Lahore’s upscale Defence area, where a young woman was forcibly taken away in a vehicle in broad daylight. The event, which occurred on Friday, has raised serious concerns about public safety in the city.
According to official records, a complaint was filed by a man named Mohammad Amin, who stated that his 25-year-old sister Mahwish was abducted near her residence. He accused her former spouse, Fayyaz, of orchestrating the act with assistance from at least two others.
Security footage captured from nearby surveillance cameras depicts a troubling scene: two individuals seen dragging the woman into a small vehicle before quickly departing the location. The video has since circulated widely, prompting public outrage.
Authorities have formally lodged a case, identifying Fayyaz along with a man named Ayub and an unnamed accomplice as the main suspects. The complainant further alleged that the motive behind the abduction was to subject the victim to sexual violence.
As of the time of reporting, there has been no confirmation of the woman’s current location. Law enforcement officials have yet to initiate a formal search, and no breakthrough in the investigation has been reported.
