According to private TV News, a statement recorded by accused Shafqat said that he and accused Abid robbed and raped the woman but when the police reached the spot, they fled. He also tried to rape a woman during a robbery in Sheikhupura a month ago but escaped without being raped when police arrived.

According to private TV, accused Shafqat has said in his statement that his co-accused Abid had raped a woman during a robbery some time back, but only a case of robbery was registered against accused Abid at that time. In this case, the plaintiff had refused to pursue the case.
According to private TV News, Abid had invited for a robbery on the motorway. Initially 3 people were Abid Ali, Shafqat Ali and Bala Mastri. For this, Abid Ali had called the other two accused from Lahore. All three went out together for the incident but Bala Mastri had gone back from the road.
