Islamic University Under Fire for Covering Up Rape Case

The International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) administration is currently under a lot of heat for allegedly attempting to bury a student rape case.

As per reports, the varsity admin tried its best to avoid disclosing the matter to the public over fears of backlash on the media. However, related rumors on social media pages and groups forced out a First Information Report (FIR) to be filed against the alleged perpetrators, almost a week after the incident took place.

On another note, Farid further claimed that the victim had lied to the police and the varsity admin by saying that he was a student of Quaid e Azam University. The spokesperson also reaffirmed the rumored assertion that many groups and lobbies existed in the university which wanted to run a smear campaign against the administration.
