Dunyapur (Dunya News) – In another socking and trgaic incident, a six-year-old girl was murdered after rape in Dunyapur.

According to details, the body of the minor girl was recovered from a pond yesterday after she went missing for four days.

The girl identified as Asma was the daughter of Noorpeer resident Sheikh Jameel. Case of the kidnapping was registered on second day but police failed to find her.

On receiving information, police  arrived at the scene and shifted the body to THQ hospital for autopsy.

DPO Ameer Taimur said that initial medical report has confirmed rape with the girl.

Police say that the girl was murdered after suffering rape. Some suspects have also been arrested in the case and are under investigation.

The incident came after an anti-terrorism court (ATC) recently handed four death sentences to Imran Ali, a man charged with raping and murdering a six-year-old girl, in a case that shocked the country and sparked major riots in his home district.

The 24-year-old man was on trial for killing Zainab Fatima Ameen in the eastern city of Kasur last month.

He faces further charges in the cases of at least seven other children attacked in the Punjab city -- five of whom were murdered -- in a spate of assaults that had stoked fears a serial child killer was on the loose. He has confessed to all eight attacks, including the death of Zainab.
