The woman, who hails from the city of Uuch Sharif in Pakistan, alleged that the police officer took her to a house on the pretext of getting additional details from her but then after attacking and overpowering her, raped the unsuspecting victim.

The woman said that the police officer also filmed the incident and threatened her if she reported it to anyone. The assistant sub-inspector has since been arrested.

Police in Pakistan have been under scrutiny after a wave of killings. Thousands have been gunned down in recent years across Pakistan in extra-judicial killings. In these non-sanctioned murders, crime suspects are shot dead by the police and are later portrayed as terrorists to boost police statistics.
