Private jail raises questions over police recruitments

Fresh investigations have unearthed further shocking details about former policeman Sanaullah, the main accused in the Quetta private jail scandal.

Previously reported for operating a clandestine detention cell in Hazara Town within Quetta Brewery Police Station, new information now reveals that Sanaullah was allegedly involved in a broader network of criminal activities, including extortion, impersonation, and child abuse, with links to other accomplices.

According to recent police sources, Sanaullah, who managed to join the police force despite having a criminal background, was previously arrested twice for theft before his police service.

This revelation raises serious questions about the recruitment and screening processes within Quetta's police department.

Police sources indicate that Sanaullah used his position to create an intimidating persona, donning a commando vest and police-issued wireless set.
