I have not received orders for house arrest: DPO Sialkot
DCO of Sialkot has issued 30-day detention orders for the former DPO as part of investigation.
Screen shot shows police vehicles escorting the trolley as it is driven through the streets.
SIALKOT: The DPO of Sialkot, Waqar Chauhan who was allegedly involved murder of the two brothers has said he has not received any orders for his house arrest and that he is sure the inquiry panel will find out the actual facts and that he is ready to face the panel.
Earlier today, the DCO of Sialkot issued 30-day detention orders for the former DPO as part of investigation into the murder of two brothers.
Meanwhile, new footage of the brutal killing of the two brothers has been released, showing that police officials allowed the incessant torture to go on.
The footage shows that the policemen never tried to stop a group of people from beating the two brothers to death.
The policemen did not take any action even when the bodies were hanged. The bodies were then placed uncovered on the plank of a trolley which was accompanied by a police van, while it was driven through various city roads.
A police official is also seen sitting next to the driver of the trolley.
On Monday, advisor to Sindh Chief Minister Sharmila Farooqui has appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry to conduct the proceedings himself so that an exemplary punishment could be awarded to all law breakers and human rights violators.
“It is height of lawlessness and cruelty that two men were tortured to death by civilians publicly and police continued watching whole scene of tragic incident as a film,” she said in a statement on Monday.
The advisor said that the notice taken by the Chief Justice of Pakistan is a laudable act but there is a need to start this trial in a speedy court because the incident has terrorised the whole society.
The perpetrators of the crime had done an inhuman act that has not only violated the teachings of religion but has also dealt a severe blow to morality and ethics, which could not be tolerated any more, she said.
She said, “The incident is very shocking for the society, which has defamed Pakistan worldwide. It is the grave violation of human rights and the country law. The culprits need to be punished severely so that no one could dare to commit such an inhuman crime.”
Sharmila said that the present democratic government is committed to end any injustice in the country, adding no one would be allowed to take law into hands.
She said, “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights to which Pakistan is a signatory mandates the right to security of person. The constitution and other laws of Pakistan also forbid beating people in any case. If any one has any complaint against any person, he or she should knock the doors of the courts.”

it is a state of sorrowness, the CSP officers,branded as the cream of this country, has this kind of attitude to treat the people of this country than no need to blame ordinary people for lack of staying power. Recommend
No words to express the grief and pain, this is barbaric and it’s better if we dissolve police department in Pakistan. I believe law and order situation will improve if there is no Police in Pakistan. Recommend
We have no right to call ourselves as Muslims,We are barbarians and men of no ethics or principles.World laughs at us as we give them chance to do so.Shame on Sialkots Police.Recommend
I think investigation should start from SHO and DPO, this is shame for pakistani police and worst face of police in pakistan. All pakistanis in UK who have watched theses videos are very upset.This is an unbelieveable act of DPO and SHO of Sialkot.This is the time to reform Pakistani police all corrupt so called policemen including all senior ranking officer must not be in police force.As a pakistani I think our country is on the brink of ” A BIG BLOODY REVOLUTION”.Recommend
No, Csp Officer are not Cream of Country. They Nothing know how to deal with people. If csp officers are Cream of country then how such incident took place in front of Csp officer. Recommend
Did he not receive the house arrest orders or were they not issued to begin with? Even if his statement is true, does he not watch the television where every channel/news network aired the story of his house arrest orders? May be he stopped watching television in protest for airing the murder footage, makes sense. I fail to understand how the DPO travelled to Rawalpindi and how the other police officers ‘escaped’ from detention. Recommend
The police involved and the people participating in the murder should be charged with act 302 (i.e. murder) and each one should be sent to jail for life. There should be no “muk mukao” allowed. If this is not done then I am afraid we will have a civil war type situation.Recommend
i have no words to say. what happened to us. all those who were watching quitely are also the part of this brutality :(
culprits must get the punsihmenet on the same place. CSP officers academy needs to redesigne there training, if they are producing such CSP officers than i must say that we are making junkRecommend
This is one of the reasons why the western society sees us muslims as terrorists. THIS IS NOT ISLAM. All the guys who beat the two kids to death and the police who were watching, it seems that they were quite amused, should be senteced to death. All this would not have happened if our coutry was not ruled by corruption and by Mullahiat. Our country has never seen a politician who is not corrupt. Yes I accuse the Mullahs of Pakistan for this murder as well, because if they stop brainwashing the people, the people might start using their brain and behave live humans.Recommend
This incident of two brothers has reached the limit of everything and it is the fact now that only a bloody revolution can save Pakistan from distinction in nut shell no nation has right to exist where its people are corrupt like its leaders. A bloody revolution that no nation has faced before can only save PakistanRecommend
I highly agree with Mr Sajjad Khan here, what training are we giving to our officer’s, shame on them and all the people there who did not even care for the Holy month of Ramadan, the act showed how numb and wild we have become that we don’t even regard Humanity, i want the DPO and the savages beaten murdered and hung in front of the whole nation with exclusive Media coverage on it, it should be an eye for an eye and blood for blood.. Recommend
I am sure most of the ppl who are condemning this brutal act right now, would have been either silent or have approved it, if brothers either belonged to Qadiani faith and/or were accused of Blasphemy (rightfully or wrongfully).Recommend
I agree with Hajji Masood the Nation of Pakistan will be distinct only a Ruthless Revolution by a God fearing people can save it ???

Their are more than 5 videos online of this incident. I alone can pause, save the stills of every person that was involved in this crime. How hard can it be to catch culprits which are in several videos? If Pakistani courts and government fail to serve justice to the victims here, then i have lost faith in my people. Not because they are muslims, not because they are pakistanis but because i expect this from a human, uneducated or a PHD, regardless.
Each and every person who is visible in this video should be punished in a way that it sets an example for the whole section of this countries of inhumane people.Recommend
I’ve been in Pakistan for 6+ months, wanting to contribute in making a positive change for the country of my birth. It is so disappointing to see what has been happening and how things have been handled here in regards the the floods and now the senseless murder of these young men, needless to say in the routines of day to day activities. Who can you turn to for support? Who is willing to take action, when there is corruption at every level. The country needs an overhaul in so many sectors, perhaps a revolution of sorts. There is a lack of education, resources, funding, and obviously law and order and mostly a lack of trust of one another. At this point, all i can say is may Allah grant us his blessings and help us seize these opportunities to make a difference, Inshallah. Recommend
This is the worst scenario govt. is doing nothing they have to kill this person Mr. president has also some charges in past is he treated like this no why he has gone to jail? if the guys are criminal or what so ever they may be they must take them to court it’s the matter of court and law & order to take decisions are they guilty or not and it’s so shame full for the ppl of Sialkot that this happen in front of them and no one is there to stop is nation sleeping for god sake president u are the most stupid one I have ever seen u dint even know what image we as being Pakistani have in the world how could u because you don’t have time from your trips ,drinks & 10% commission men …………………..its reality sir.
It’s my request to nation our country is in disaster before that we all sink say Zardari to go and tha aid he have for the effected must be given to them because all his workers and parliament members are also are corrupt let the army to run and Pervez mushraf is the best democratic men for the time. Recommend
I am utterly speechless!! I have only read in books about the jahilliyah of pre-islamic societies and also of the communities who were so steeped in immoral and unethical acts which were eventually wiped off the face of the earth through the wrath of Allah, but I would never in my life have imagined to see with my own eyes such inhumane acts of cruelty such as these.. I am a British born Pakistani and have strived to keep my culture and beliefs alive whilst living in a Westernised country but I am so ashamed and disgraced by the acts of these people that quite frankly I don’t want to be affiliated to this country or it’s people anymore.. Unless there is a complete overhaul of the whole system and political infrastructure of Pakistan I really doubt very much it will survive. I really hope and pray that a dynamic leader such as Imran Khan can lead this country out of this despair and turmoil. A radical reform of the mindset of the people needs to take place, what needs to be addressed is the psyche of the people – what is it that is causing so called muslims to behave worse than barbarians???? Recommend
Well said Aysha. I completely agree with you.
This was a **CRIME** against **HUMANITY!**
There is no **LAW & ORDER** in **PAKISTAN**, where government officials/officers can be bought to keep there mouths shut or to turn a blind eye.
**JUSTICE** must be done for the family of these two innocent brothers. I am ashamed to be of Pakistani descent, even though I was born to a British Pakistani couple, which makes me British? **Thank GOD!!**
I watched the footage and it shocked me to the core, I could in no way describe the feelings of shock, anger and upset it caused me, and if you think about it, this was me watching footage via youtube, did the bystanders not have a heart **WHO** watched this infront of there eyes?? How could they just stand and watch/record such a hideous crime? It is beyond me. I can say for the past 3 days I have not been able to sleep, or really have an appetite to eat at Sehri or Iftar.
In the month of Ramadan, two innocent life’s were taken, who were at the time fasting. May **Allah (SWT)** Grant them Jannat e Firdoz Ameen and for those **ANIMALS** may he grant them **HELL FIRE** on earth and **JAHUNAM** in the here after.
I urge people to write to the **Pakistan Ministry of Law & Justice**, to express there disgust and to demand **JUSTICE** to be done for the family and that the murderers/policemen are given the same punishment that they seemed was good for these two young brothers. It may or may not make a difference, but at least we are trying to do something positive in the name of Humanity?

It’s worth a try, please forward the above emails to all friends/family and urge them to please email there views and to demand **JUSTICE** to be done.

i just have one question, as a pakistani living in pakistan, what have you achieved? when pakistan win a cricket match, all you hear is (pakistan zindabad)…… i doubt even one of you’s knows the basis of cricket,
I myself am a pakistani, i thank allah for giving my parents the sence of moving countries,
before i watched this footage, i used to think to myself, why does the rest of the world think negative of my country (pakistan). today after watching those two brother getting killing in that manner, i realised its not the country, its sick minded humans that live in that make the country make look negative in the worlds eyes,
i would like all so state, if those two brother’s had a 500 pupee note, to give to thepolice, i’m sure they would have been alive today, may allah give them a place in janat, “ameen”
from today insha allah i will never say pakistan zindabadRecommend
“It is height of lawlessness and cruelty that two men were tortured to death by civilians publicly and police continued watching whole scene of tragic incident as a film,” she said in a statement on Monday. THE ONE IN TRACKSUIT WAS A POLICEMAN IN CIVILIAN CLOTHES. POLICE DIDN’T WATCH, THEY STARTED IT, GAVE THE FATAL BLOWS & ENSURED DEATH. GET YOUR FACTS STREIGHT.Recommend
As far as the killing of two youth is concerned, no body can deny that it was a brutality, offence against society and inhuman also. But the fact remains that all episode was done in presence of police. Under the law if some one is make to drink liquor and then some offence is got committed through that drinker as to who would be responsible? In this scenior when the police itself had allowed and encouraged the mob to eliminiate the youth and that is why under heat of passions, the people among the mob had committed the brutal murder of said youth. The main culprit is the head of District Police and all the police personnel who were on duty in that area. Think about it.Recommend
It is now being learnt that the people who appeared in support of villagers of village Butter before the Judicial commission, are being arrayed as the culprits in the main occurrence of brutal murder of two youth. It is a matter of great concern and the highups who are make inquiries/investigations should not involve or harras the people who have assisted the Judicial commission because in that way no body would dare to assist the agencies in any future incident. It is also seen on the media that the Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah is making false statements against Mr.Zulfiqar Ahmad Cheema, then Regional police Officer Gujranwala after having pregnant with grudge as prior to the unfortunate incident, the party of said Minister had lost election in Gujranwala and the RPO remained impartial. It is high time to think that there are few Officers who are having their integrity beyond doubt amont whom one of them is Mr.Cheema but some people are going to destroy such Officer just for their personal vendetta. Think about it.Recommend
Ya Allah, Subhanallah, Allahu Akbar.. I can’t keep watching this cruelty, really zalim, zalim, zalim, no more other words can express… these people are not human, they are worst than animals, they are syaitan living in the body of men, those they killed are just young boys, Ya Allah.. I do not know how their mother can handle this situation, I am a mother, I may have heart attacked and died if this happened to any of my sons, Nauzubillahiminzalik, may Allah protect them, Ya Allah, please protect my sons and generations from those zalim people… how could this have happened? Ya Allah .. I can’t imagine their suffering, pleading, screaming, crying, Ya Allah … Ya Allah Ya Allah …my heart bleeding ..Recommend
