This girl is a school teacher in a private school - incident happened when she was going to the school early morning. Cannot image the trauma she had. Low salary. Daily life struggle. And these beasts roaming around in streets. Police must act and arrest this culprit. #Rawalpindi pic.twitter.com/k5oWgYfPLf
