 On December 30, 1999, Javed Iqbal was arrested from the office of an Urdu newspaper. As soon as Iqbal started writing his confession in the office of the newspaper, the staff there informed the Pakistan Army that more than 100 soldiers surrounded the building.

 

 All the children who were the victims of Javed Iqbal's brutality were between the ages of 6 and 16 and most of them ran away from home and lived on the streets of Lahore. After killing innocent children, Javed Iqbal used to throw their bodies in acid in the river Ravi.

 

 Just hours after Javed Iqbal's arrest, two of his alleged accomplices were also arrested from Sawaha, Punjab, who were helping him with money and travel.

 

 A month after Javed Iqbal's confession, the police continued to interrogate the parents of the missing and slain children for several days. More than 80 people were identified with the help of thier families. Photographs of several children and their clothes were also found in the pile in Javed Iqbal's house.

 "I could have killed 500 people, no problem, no money, but I made a promise to myself of hundreds of children I didn't want to break," he said.

 Javed Iqbal told the newspaper that he did all this to get revenge on the police. He said that in the nineties he was interrogated by the police on the charge of child abuse but no charges could be filed against him.

 

 "During the interrogation, I was severely beaten, my head was torn, my spine was broken, I was paralyzed, I hate this world," he said. Javed Iqbal said that my mother cried for me and I wanted 100 mothers to cry for their children.

 

 During the hearing of the case in the court, the judge indicted the most brutal killer in the history of the country and said that the accused should be punished in the same way as he killed innocent children.

 

 The judge ruled: "You will be hanged in front of the parents of the affected children, and then your body will be cut into hundreds of pieces and dissolved in acid in the same way as you melted the children's bodies."

 

 However, the then government did not allow it, saying it was against the law.
