KARACHI:
Two policemen were injured by two men who identified themselves as Balochistan Chief Minister Nawab Aslam Raisani’s sons in DHA on Thursday night.
ASI Ghulam Hussain and Head Constable Amir stopped a car on the corner of Khayaban-e-Shaheen and Khayaban-e-Shamsheer. The young men in it told them that they were the sons of the Balochistan chief minister and they didn’t need to stop.
According to SHO Darakhshan Nasrullah Khan, there were around 20 other friends with them and they were all bothering young women and getting into fights on the street together.
This is why the police had tried to stop them. “It was 3:30am and the boys were drunk and messing with the people on the street,” he said. “When my officers stopped them, they started beating them.”
The policemen were not severely injured but had marks on their faces and hands.
No arrests have been made.

Remember the brave PIA guy who refused to delay the flight for the police boss? Remember Waheeda Shah? All will be forgiven. All has to be forgiven.
Feudalism must be destroyed.
@Muhammad Khan My comment's aim was to point towards an apparent anomaly in the news report. It leaves much doubt in the readers mind.
The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club.
Why is that these sons of high ups could beat up the police and get away. Are they trained to let them go. It is like politicians whose status is elevated when they go to jail and then become leaders. Not all of them though, there are ones you are aspirants and beat up the presiding officers right in the polling both. There should be law for not banning "asking maufi'. And these people should be allowed to wave triumphantly also outside Supreme Court.
@Confused, You are absolutely right! No women hangs out at 3:30 am in karachi. She must be working. ASI were probably trying to extort money and got what they deserved.
While the activities of those bullies are to be condemned; ironically police met their match and could even dare to touch them. the officers who were beaten may now feal the similar pain as those poor people feel who are roughed-up / beaten / abused by them without any reason.
@confused, Why do you care if other people are there on the streets at 3:30. When I was reading the paragraph and came across that young women at 3:30 sentence, I knew somebody in the comments section would have made a reference and it turns out you did.
When an woman was caught with bottle of alcohol in her handbag, judges take suo-moto action. What are they going to do when these boys are drunk and misbehaving in the street? I am not saying that suo-moto action should be taken. Just pointing out that the judges made a mockery of themselves in the earlier suo-moto action.
Feudals have & will destroy this country! They should be punished.
What no arrests have been made? You guys are unbelievable. How can you maintain law and order if thugs operate with impunity?
Those sons should be whipped in front of general public.
How were there people (and that also young girls) on the street at 3:30am?
