Officer clarifies situation, cites personal choice
A lady police constable in Lahore has dismissed reports of her alleged abduction, stating that she left voluntarily and married a man of her own choice. Following her statement, authorities immediately withdrew the kidnapping case that had been registered earlier.
According to police officials, the case was initially filed on the complaint of the constable’s father, who feared that his daughter had been kidnapped while traveling to her workplace. However, the constable clarified that no such incident had occurred, prompting investigators to close the case.
Meanwhile, the development has shifted the focus from a suspected crime to a personal matter, with officials confirming that no further legal action is required.
Initial report triggered police action
Earlier, the first information report stated that the constable, identified as Ayesha, failed to report for duty on time. She had been assigned a night shift from 11 pm to 7 am, raising concern when she did not arrive as scheduled.
Subsequently, her father approached the police and requested the registration of a case, expressing fears for her safety. Acting on the complaint, authorities registered a kidnapping case and launched a search operation to locate her.
Furthermore, law enforcement agencies mobilized resources to trace her whereabouts, treating the matter as a potential abduction. However, her later statement resolved the situation and confirmed that she had left by choice.
Overall, the case highlights how initial concerns can escalate quickly, while timely clarification can bring investigations to a prompt conclusion.
