Karachi: A woman's dead body was allegedly dug up and raped by unidentified men in Karachi's Landhi Town. The woman was buried in Ismail Goth Graveyard on Saturday night. The police are yet to ascertain the number of people who were involved in the incident.

The woman's body was dug up one day after it was buried. The caretaker of the graveyard told the deceased's family that a dog had removed the slab which was covering the grave.

The incident came to light after some of the locals called the woman's family and told them that the body was lying outside the grave.

The family, however, refused to believe the explanation given by the caretaker and approached the police. The family said that the slab was not light enough to be removed by a dog. The graveyard caretaker is absconding. The woman's relatives told the police that they do not wish to file a legal complaint in relation to the incident.

Further investigation is underway.
