Ishaq Dar's Grandson Arrested in Lahore Gangrape Case: Political Storm Erupts
A major political controversy has erupted in Pakistan after Senator Faisal Vawda demanded the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar. The demand comes after the arrest of Dar's alleged grandson, Muhammad Raza Dar, in a high-profile gangrape case in Lahore .
According to police, two foreign women—one from the Netherlands and the other from Venezuela—were allegedly abducted and gangraped on June 29 in Lahore. Four suspects have been arrested so far, with Muhammad Raza Dar identified as the prime suspect .
Police sources claim that Raza Dar met the two women in Singapore last year and arranged business visas for them to travel to Pakistan. The accused is reportedly involved in a cryptocurrency venture with the victims .
Senator Faisal Vawda has accused both the federal government and Punjab administration of attempting to shield a politically connected suspect. "Pakistan is being run like a family corporation," Vawda said on social media platform X .
Vawda further alleged that efforts were being made to dilute the case by treating it as extortion rather than rape. He also claimed authorities were trying to send the victims back to their countries quickly .
Neither Ishaq Dar nor the federal government has responded to these allegations at the time of publication. The case has triggered widespread outrage and renewed scrutiny of political influence over criminal investigations in Pakistan .
A Lahore court has remanded the arrested suspects to five days of police custody for further investigation. One accused remains absconding .
This developing story has become the top trending topic in Pakistan, with social media users demanding accountability and justice. The case raises serious questions about Pakistan's justice system and the influence of powerful political families.
