According to the report published in Express Tribune, the alleged rapist, Muhammad Ibrahim Khan, is the brother of the clerk-turned-resident house tutor Yousuf Khan. He was residing in the room illegally along with another man identified as Mehmood Ashraf.
It is reported that the appointment of Yousuf Khan as RHT is illegal since the post is dedicated to the senior teaching faculty member who will guide and supervise the students. Yousuf Khan acquired the position due to his contacts in the administration.
