(Karachi) Punjab police has shared details of prime suspect in Motorway rape incident, Abid Ali, with law enforcement personnel of other provinces in a bid to help arrest him, ARY News reported on Friday. The culprit is still at large.

As per details, Punjab police have failed to arrest accused Abid despite the passage of more than a week since the incident was reported on September 9. The police shared all relevant details of the absconding suspect with the police departments of other provinces, seeking their help in arresting him.

In addition, the police also established check posts at the entry and exits of the province to prevent possible cross-border movement of the suspect.

On September 17, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) blacklisted Abid Ali. The law enforcement agencies feared that Abid might escape from the country so they requested the FIA to put his name on the blacklist. The investigation agency had already sent the data of the accused to airports and border security checkpoints across the country.
