Mufti Aziz ur Rehman, who has been arrested by Lahore police for sexually abusing his seminary student, will be convicted by the court, vowed the Inspector-General (IG) Punjab Police Inam Ghani on Sunday.

In his tweet today, IG Punjab, following Mufti Aziz ur Rehman and his son’s arrest wrote, “We have been able to arrest this criminal. We will take it as a test case, interrogate him, conduct a scientific professional investigation, prosecute and get him convicted by the court.”

“We want our kids protected from these child molesters and keep our society safe for our future,” he added.

Earlier in the day, the Lahore police have arrested both Mufti Aziz and his son, who began to blackmail and threaten the student to kill him from Mianwali.

A video featuring the religious cleric went viral and brought storm all over social media in which he could be seen sexually abusing a seminary student.

The viral video has sparked extreme outrage by the JUI lawmakers, parents and other religious scholars. The institute itself has issued a notice against the Mufti.

The outraged Pakistani Twitteraties had demanded action against Rehman and a clear out of paedophiles in religious seminaries across the country.
