An 18-year-old woman was enticed with a job offer and then gang-raped on M-4 motorway in Gojra, Pakistan's Punjab province on Monday, reported local media.The perpetrators of the crime invited the woman with evil intentions for a job in the city and when she arrived, the suspects gang-raped her in the car, dashed her on Faisalabad Interchange and fled from the scene, Pakistan's The Nation reported.Officials have found the main culprit while a search has been underway to arrest the other alleged rapists.Experts have raised concerns over the continuous cases of rape and sexual assault in Pakistan. They said that such incidents create a fearful environment for women and children in the country.Analysts blamed police and investigation agencies for such incidents saying that these cases emerge due to negligence of authorities.They also said that society gives undue advantage to perpetrators by blaming victims. Instead of having a drop in the number of cases, there has been a sharp rise with an overall less than 1 per cent conviction rate, according to The Nation.In Pakistan, at least 11 rape cases are reported daily with over 22,000 rape cases reported to police in the last six years from the country, as per the data obtained from various bodies including the Police, Law and Justice Commission of Pakistan, Human Rights Commission of Pakistan.Only 77 accused of the 22,000 cases were found to be convicted and the conviction rate is around 0.3 per cent."Sadly, rape culture is predominant in Pakistan -- one that blames the victims of sexual assault and frames all men as naturally violent. Many are working to try to change this discourse, but it is an uphill battle," The Nation quoted Nida Kirmani, a professor at Lahore University of Management Sciences, as saying.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
