LAHORE- The accusations leveled by Khurram Shehzad Victor, a resident of Sialkot, on his cousin of sexually assaulting and abducting his three daughters are false, according to a counterclaim by Govt of Punjab that emerged in Twitter.
In a series of tweets, the officials shared the details of the case filed by Victor saying that a proper investigation has been carried out. During the investigations, the ground realities, medical examination reports, and the girl’s statement didn’t match the claims made by Khurram Shehzad.

Truly unfortunate how a father can subject his own daughters to such a shameful accusation of rape. The facts on the ground, medical examination report & girls themselves, negate such a claim of Victor>> pic.twitter.com/z1DqHHCs2K— Govt Of The Punjab (@GovtOfPunjab) January 18, 2018
The District Police Officer (DPO) of Sialkot Asad Sarfraz shared the details of the investigation while talking to a private media outlet. ” Khurram Shehzad victor filed a case against his five cousins on 19 April 2017, accusing them of raping his three daughters of age 9, 10, 11 years respectively,” Asad Sarfraz shared and added, “all the suspects were investigated and the girls were examined medically, however, the medical reports showed no signs of any kind of physical assault.”

Social activist Jibran Nasir, who has raised Victor’s case on social media, has also shared the thread by Govt of Punjab but has called for a judicial inquiry to make sure the girls are safe and police’s claims are not a mere attempt to cover up the incident.
Allegations levelled by #KhurramShehzadVictor are of a very serious nature which have been strongly disputed by @GovtOfPunjab. Did the father put his daughters through this ordeal deliberately or is Police covering it up? Courts must resolve this for sake of girls’s future https://t.co/35U6ymiP7y

Victor has been camping outside Lahore Press Club for three months in ‘search of justice’ while facts negate rape claim.
