A gang of criminals in Pakistan's Karachi city deliberately causes an accident and then abducts women in these vehicles to loot and gangrape them, police said.

"The gang is operating in up-market areas like Clifton, Defence etc., where the streets are not too thickly populated and it is easy to carry out such crimes in deserted areas," Geo TV said on Tuesday, adding that "these criminals then throw the women at any public place and run away".
