60 female students and teachers thrashed in Pakistan for "inappropriate" dress...

Sixty masked men wielding iron rods barged into a girls' school in the garrison city of Rawalpindi and thrashed students and female teachers for being dressed inappropriately, according to a media report here on Sunday.

The gang warned teachers and students at MC Model Girls High School in Satellite Town during the attack on Friday to "dress modestly and wear hijabs" or face the consequences, witnesses said.

The attack created panic in the area and only 25 of the school's 400 students attended classes yesterday, The Express Tribune newspaper reported. The school has 30 female teachers.
Attendance in other educational institutions in the area too remained low, the report said.

After hearing about the attack, all schools in Rawalpindi shut down, an unnamed official of the district administration told the daily. Full story...
