"When I approached Yasir on WhatsApp and told him about the incident, he made fun of me and said that he likes underage girls," the complainant alleged in the FIR read as per Geo TV

"Yasir Shah said that he was a very influential person and that he knew a high-ranking official […] Yasir Shah and Farhan make videos and rape underage girls," she further alleged.

Meanwhile, no news or report of the 35-year-old getting arrested has come out yet. He is expected to be summoned to the police station for further inquiry and if proven guilty, he might also be put behind the bars.
