However, after contacting the Belgium embassy, police said they had no record of her being in Pakistan.
Officials did refer cops to the Dutch Embassy, as her home town is thought to be near the border between the two countries.
They also reached out to Pakistan's FIA, the government's security agency, who also said they had no record of the victim entering the country.
Despite the woman's claims, Islamabad Police said they believed the woman was not a foreigner and were investigating the shocking incident.
