Out On Streets: Two children kidnapped within four days

SUKKUR: Members of the Hindu Panchayat and civil society staged a protest outside the Thull press club Saturday against the kidnapping of eight-year-old Manoj Kumar, son of Suneel Kumar, from his house in Hindu mohalla. Ironically, six-year-old Saima, daughter of Abdul Samee Khoso, went missing from her house in Mohammad Siddiq Noonari mohalla while the protest was going on. Hindu Panchayat president Thull Ramesh Lal and PML (Q) Jacobabad president Sardar Zulfiqar Sarki admonished the police for being unable to locate the boy.

Suneel Kumar told reporters that someone called him Friday night and told him to arrange ransom money for the release of his son.
