In a shocking revelation, US filmmaker, adventurist and blogger Cynthia Dawn Ritchie has claimed that she was raped by Pakistan's former Interior Minister Rehman Malik and assaulted by other men in the highest echelons of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).

She also accused former Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani and former health minister Makhdoom Shahabuddin of physically manhandling her inside President’s House in Islamabad.

Sure to create consternation in Pakistan, Cynthia went live on Facebook claiming that the reason the PPP is going after her is not the tweet that she shared but rather the dirt she has against the top ranking officials of the political party.

Twitter was agog with her FB live session where she named former Interior Minister Rehman Malik as the main perpetrator of her rape. She further tweeted, "Occurred at IM's house in min enclave 2011 around the OBL incident. I thought it a meeting about my visa but I was given flowers/a drugged drink. I kept quiet - who in PPP gov't would help me against PPP IM (referring to then Interior Minister Rehman Malik). Recently they attacked family; I've had it. Ready to face any accuser."

Moreover she claimed she has all the necessary evidence to support her allegations. Just before going on FB live, she calculatingly tweeted: "ZardarisFilthyPPP keeps threatening me. Why? Because they know that over the years I have been raped/assaulted by men in the highest ranks of PPP. They don't want the world to know. I have decided to go live on Facebook in approximately 30 minutes & continue to tell my story."
