A tourist claims that she has been gang-raped for five days after being abducted in Pakistan before being dumped in the street with her hands and legs tied.
The 28-year-old woman was found lying in the streets in Islamabad, with a picture appearing to show her with her hands tied behind her back and her ankles strapped together.
She said that the men who allegedly gang-raped her threw her out of a vehicle in the city, where she was found by passersby who called the police, local media reports.
The woman, who claims to be a tourist from Belgium, was taken to hospital. She reportedly told police that she had been in Pakistan for six months.
Police have since arrested one man and searched his apartment, Pakistani outlets report.

After investigators reached out to the Belgian Embassy to confirm the woman's claims that she is a tourist, officials reportedly told them they had no record of the woman being in Pakistan.
Pakistan's security agency, the FIA, echoed this statement and said they had no trace of the woman entering their country.
Officials at the Belgian Embassy sent police to the Dutch Embassy, as the woman's home town is said to be near the border between Belgium and the Netherlands.
But local police who are investigating the woman's claims reportedly said that they believe she is not a foreigner.
The arrested man also told police that the woman was mentally unwell and did not carry any ID with her, according to reports.
This comes two years after an American vlogger claimed to have been gang-raped in a hotel in Pakistan by her guide and an accomplice who took videos of her to use as blackmail.
Pakistan's police arrested two people after the 21-year-old woman reported the assault in July 2022, which she said happened when she was visiting a tourist resort in the eastern Punjab province.
The detainees included the woman's host, who took her to a hotel in Dera Ghazi Khan, a district in the Punjab province, where she said she was sexually assaulted, according to a police investigation.
The woman arrived in Pakistan three weeks before, according to police.
The woman earlier stayed at the home of one of the alleged attackers for five days, with local reports suggesting he was her 'guide'.
The Free Press Journal reported at the time that it had seen the First Information Report (FIR) - a written document by police when a case is first reported.
In it, the Free Press Journal said the woman told police she was gang-raped by two men who filmed the assault and used it to blackmail her.
'We stayed in a hotel at Fort Monroe where both suspects gang-raped me and also made a video of the act to blackmail me,' she alleged in the FIR.
She then said one of the suspects threatened her after she went to the police.
