In a disturbing incident of violence, a minor girl was allegedly subjected to a brutal physical assault by a group of armed men, who also recorded the attack and later circulated the video on social media.
The incident reportedly occurred in the Zairki area of Domail tehsil in Bannu, sparking widespread concern and condemnation after footage of the assault began circulating online.
According to initial reports, the young girl was allegedly abducted by a group of armed individuals who later subjected her to severe physical violence. The attackers reportedly accused the girl of wearing boys’ clothing and spending time with a boy, which they used as a justification for their actions.
Police officials said the viral video shows several men surrounding the girl while verbally threatening and beating her. In the footage, the assailants can be heard warning the victim that she must not be seen with boys in the future.
The video also reportedly captures the attackers threatening the girl and instructing her not to leave her home under any circumstances in the future.
The circulation of the video on social media has sparked outrage among the public, with many calling for immediate action against those responsible for the crime.
Authorities confirmed that an investigation has been launched to examine all aspects of the incident. Law enforcement officials said they are carefully reviewing the viral footage and collecting evidence to identify the individuals involved in the assault.
Police added that efforts are underway to trace and apprehend the suspects seen in the video. Officials also stated that further legal action will be taken once the perpetrators are identified.
Authorities emphasised that such acts of violence and intimidation cannot be tolerated and assured the public that those responsible will be brought to justice.
The case has once again raised serious concerns about vigilantism, violence against women, and the misuse of social media to spread disturbing content. Investigators said they are continuing their efforts to determine the full circumstances surrounding the incident and ensure accountability for those involved.
