Punjab’s Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz dismissed the rape claims as fabricated, stating that the supposed victim was hospitalized since October 2 due to a serious fall, unrelated to any assault. Despite these denials, student protests have intensified, resulting in clashes with police, property damage, and the imposition of Section 144, temporarily closing educational institutions to prevent further unrest
