Lahore: (RightNow) The Lahore High Court has rejected the appeals against the death sentences of the convicts in the Motorway gang rape case. The decision was issued by a two-member bench led by Justice Shahbaz Rizvi.

The court stated that crimes against women create fear in society. The use of DNA evidence is a highly reliable means to reach the truth.

The written judgment noted that the convicts violated human dignity. The victim’s testimony is sufficient to uphold the sentence.

The court emphasized the necessity of keeping the victim’s identity confidential in sexual assault cases. The woman’s medical examination confirmed the crime.

It is noteworthy that on June 3, 2026, the Lahore High Court had upheld the death sentences of the convicts, dismissing their appeals.
