Muslim gang rapes 2 Christian women, 5 suspects end up dead, 6th in jail

The American Center for Law and Justice is reporting on a case in which its Pakistani affiliate, the Organization for Legal Aid, was called to help two Christian women who were gang-raped by six members of a Muslim gang.

The final result? Five of the gang members were shot dead by police during an escape attempt and the sixth now has been sentenced to 25 years in prison.

The ACLJ report explains it “successfully secured justice” for the victims.

It happened in September 2023, when six Muslim men broke into a Christian family’s house at night to commit robbery, and raped two women, a mother of four and her sister-in-law.

The family reported the attackers to police and they were caught within days.

Then the OLA stepped in, as the legal process in Pakistan differs from American law.

“In Pakistan, the victim has a right to be represented by an attorney who works alongside the prosecution. In essence, the victim’s attorney presents the prosecution’s case before the court,” the ACLJ reported.

“These kinds of cases involve more than just legal representation; they require spiritual support and sometimes medical help. Our team was able to provide the necessary medical support to the two women in this time of trauma,” the legal team said.

The shootings happened shortly later, as police were moving the men from a police station to prison and they attempted to escape. Five were shot and killed.

“Nasir Shah – the sixth assailant – survived and faced trial. The trial continued throughout 2024, in which our team prepared the family for their testimony, including cross-examinations by the defendant’s counsel, as well as everything else that a trial entails. Several hearings in 2025 were postponed (a common practice in Pakistan), delaying the conclusion of the case,” the ACLJ reported.

But this week the trial court announced its decision, sentencing Shah to 25 years in prison.

“This decision represents a significant victory for justice and sends a strong message that such heinous crimes will not go unpunished if the victims are supported and the law is pursued without compromise,” the OLA said in a statement.
