PTI decries police brutality

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Sindh President Haleem Adil Sheikh said on Sunday that law enforcement agencies should be used for maintaining law and order and ensuring security of the lives and properties of the people, rather than political victimisation.

Addressing a press conference at the Karachi Press Club he strongly protested against police action on K-P-bound rally of PTI and the arrest of party members.

Haleem Adil Sheikh said Dr. Masroor Sial, Raja Azhar, Arsalan Khalid, Rana Azam, and others were arrested two days ago for crimes they did not commit. They were subjected to police violence, and false FIRs were registered against them.

Sheikh condemned the bomb blast at Quetta Railway Station, which resulted in the deaths of 32 citizens. He stated that those responsible for the attack are neither friends of the country nor the nation but are, in fact, enemies of both. He said two days ago, the entire police force in Quetta was focused on targeting PTI workers, with law enforcement agencies preoccupied with preventing PTI's public gathering. He argued that if the police had been performing their actual duties, the terrorist incident could have been avoided.
