ISLAMABAD: Hats off to a 14-year-old car-washer boy who played an effective role in identifying the gangsters who tried to humiliate a noble family at the Jinnah Super Market and created fear among them by aerial firing.
The boy, who is studying in a local school in the morning and washes cars in the evening to earn bread and butter for his family, fulfilled his responsibility as a good citizen to identify the anti-social elements. Eve-teasing has never been considered a major crime and such incidents are often not reported by victim girls and women due to fear.
The Islamabad Police, after Interior Minister Ch Nisar Ali Khan took notice, busted a gang of eve-teasers from the federal capital who were involved in teasing a young girl and later resorting to aerial firing on the interception of onlookers in the Jinnah Super Market on Wednesday night (March 25).
The six-member gang of eve-teasers, who hailed from elite segment of society, has been traced in a dramatic way by police with the assistance of a car-washer and a ninth-grade student. The boy who used to attend school in morning-shift and wash cars in posh market of the capital city to earn bread for his family assisted police in hunting down this six-member gang after refusal of shopkeepers to cooperate with the police owing to fear of this influential young gang. Out of this six-member gang, two had been arrested and were identified as Imran and Khurram, and police were taking action to hunt down four others who had also been identified.
All these six boys belong to influential families of a bureaucrat, businessman, senior police official and a former minister. This gang frequently visits posh markets of the capital city including Jinnah Super and Super Market to tease and harass families, women and girls. On Wednesday night, a female professor of OPF Girls College along with her daughter, a cancer patient, was manhandled by this gang and the boys dragged the girl to their car and on interference of onlookers resorted to aerial firing and fled away from the scene. Later, the family somehow brought all this mess into the notice of the interior minister and he ordered the police to clampdown on the gang in 24-hours, on which police personnel got access to the record of Excise and Taxation to trace the White Surf vehicle of this gang and heroic deed of the car-washer boy took police to trace Imran, son of a coalmine owner and Khurram, son of an ex-IG, through the Facebook and Viber.
Police taking prompt action registered FIR numbered 153/2015 in Kohsar Police Station and search is going on to hunt down four other members of this gang. The boy who assisted police to trace the gang disclosed that they used to move in a white Toyota Surf and tease young girls and families who come to the Jinnah Super for shopping. The gang used to pass vulgar remarks and make indecent gestures to the women and girls, and whenever anyone tried to obstruct them, they bring out pistols and threaten them of dire consequences, the way they did on Wednesday night when the onlookers prevented them from dragging the girl towards their car and one of the boys came out from sunroof of the vehicle and resorted to aerial firing, the car-washer boy stated.
Owing to fear of this eve-teaser-gang, shopkeepers as well as people present in and around the Jinnah Super Market didn’t try to intercept them as one member of the gang is the son of a sitting MNA, one is the son of the serving Assistant Commissioner, one is the son of an SP while one boy is the son of a former female federal minister. Police as well as authorities concerned should award this young boy who dared to expose the identity of such elements.
