Mufti Aziz and sons indicted in Sexual Assault case

Lahore: A sessions court in Lahore on Monday charged Mufti Aziz ur Rehman, the former leader of the Jamiat Ulema-I-Islam (JUI), and his five sons in a case of sexually assaulting a pupil at his madressah.

They all decided to dispute the allegations and pled not guilty to the crime. The court ordered the prosecution to present its witnesses at the next hearing so that their testimony may be recorded.

Previously, Mufti Aziz-ur-Rehman of the Jamia Mazoorul Islamia was charged with sexual assault on June 16th after videos of him forcing himself on a Madrrasah student went viral. “If justice is not done, I will commit suicide,” the victim is claimed to have declared. Mufti Aziz Ur Rehman had previously stated that the video was old and that “I certify on oath that such an act was not committed in my consciousness.” He also stated that he was given intoxicated substances.
