Sargodha: Police have registered a case against two sisters under the Anti-Rape Act after they retracted their statements in a rape case during court proceedings.
According to Sargodha police, a woman had earlier lodged a case accusing two men of rape and physical assault. However, during the trial, both the complainant and her sister withdrew their statements before the court.
Police officials said that the Sessions Court acquitted both accused after the witnesses turned hostile. Authorities stated that the sisters had filed a false rape case, resulting in the wastage of judicial time, prompting legal action against them.
