KARACHI:

The headmaster of a school in the Moach Goth district of Karachi is said to have raped a ten-year-old student.

According to police officials, a case was registered at the Mochko police station after the victim’s father filed a complaint.

The first information report (FIR) filed by the mother states that the headmaster is teaching her three daughters. On June 21, the headmaster called and insisted that the daughters visit him to receive Eidi. Despite initial refusal, the mother finally sent her daughters due to his persistence.
