Petitioner Imran Shah said that his wife Fakhira had visited a clinic for medical checkup. “The quack gave her an injection, which caused her death,” he said. He said he had gone to the Nishtar Colony police station to lodge a complaint against the quack. However, they had refused to do so. He requested the court to direct the SHO to register the FIR.
