A 35-year-old woman, who lost her eyes in an acid attack, has been gangraped by three men in Pakistan's Punjab province, police said today.
The woman, a resident of Layyah district in the province, had lost her eye sight in the attack in 2001 when her relative threw acid on her face for refusing to develop relations with him.
A senior police official said that her neighbour Khalid came to her house and said she would have to go along with him to his friend's house to collect wheat for her.
"He took her to his friend's house where he along with his accomplices - Khalid and Sultan - ganged raped her and left her at a deserted place," the official said.
Some passers-by spotted her lying unconsciously and shifted her to hospital where doctors confirmed rape.
A case has been registered against the accused.
Police also claimed to have arrested the three accused.
