A Lahore judicial magistrate granted Defense C police a six-day remand for two suspects in an alleged gang-rape case involving an Azeri woman. The 20-year-old victim was reportedly assaulted by three men in a rented flat near Raiwind; one suspect has been arrested on Monday and another on Tuesday. Police sought a 14-day remand but the magistrate approved only six days for interrogation, evidence collection, and DNA testing. This case is similar to an incident from June where two foreign women were abducted and sexually assaulted by five suspects in the same area.

Story summary
On September 25-26, 2026, a 20-year-old Azeri woman visiting Pakistan for business purposes was allegedly gang-raped by three men in Lahore. The incident occurred after she went out with two women who introduced her to three men at a cafe near Raiwind Road. According to the victim's statement, the suspects drugged her and took her to an unidentified flat where they raped her before abandoning her near Ghazi Interchange. Police registered a case against the suspects and identified them; one was arrested on September 26 while raids continued for the others. Lahore police requested federal authorities to place the names of three prime suspects on the Provisional National Identification List (PNIL) to prevent their escape. The victim recorded her statement under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before a judicial magistrate, and two suspects were granted six-day remand for interrogation and evidence collection.
