VEHARI:

A tailor was brutally attacked with a metal rod for refusing to sew clothes for four persons.

The victim was shifted to the THQ hospital in a critical condition.

The incident took place in Tehsil Malesi, where unruly youths subjected the tailor to torture for refusing to sew clothes. The suspects Mehran and Yousuf, along with two unknown accomplices, attacked the tailor Muhammad Asif.

Asif informed the police that due to heavy workload for Eidul Fitr, he had stopped taking orders for stitching, upon which Mehran and Yousuf, along with two unknown persons, had threatened him of dire consequences if their clothes were not sewn.

When he refused, they severely beat him up him with an iron rod, followed by death threats.

The attackers managed to escape from the scene.

The police registered a case of the incident.
