On Saturday, a tea stall owner was allegedly beaten to death by Gulberg police constables at his stall. Other customers at the shop said it was because Muhammad Fayyaz, the victim, had demanded payment for the tea and edibles the cops had ordered.
Muhammad Jamil, the victim’s brother, told journalists that some cops from the Gulberg police station would frequent his brother’s tea stall. “However, they would often leave without paying for the food they had ordered and that had worried Fayyaz.”
