The unidentified woman, who claimed she was from Belgium, told police that she had been in Pakistan for six months when she was abducted and thrown out of a vehicle days later. Police have arrested one male suspect and searched his apartment, the Daily Mail reported.
The Belgium Embassy was unable to confirm the woman's identity and Pakistan's security agency said it has no documentation of the woman entering the country. Pakistan does not believe the victim is a foreigner, according to the paper.
The arrested suspect told police that the woman was mentally unwell. She did not have an ID on her, authorities said.
This occurred two years after a 21-year-old American vlogger reported that her guide and an accomplice, who recorded videos of her for the purpose of extortion, had gang-raped her in a Pakistani hotel. Police arrested two men over the alleged incident. The woman had been in Pakistan for three weeks before she claimed she was sexually assaulted.
The investigation into the alleged Belgium woman's gang rape incident remains ongoing.
