Pakistan Peoples Party-Shaheed Bhutto (PPP-SB) group chairperson Ghinwa Bhutto organised a sit-in in front of Naundero police station on Saturday.
She was accompanied by a large number of peasants and party supporters. Ghinwa was protesting what she claimed as 'forcible occupation' of her agricultural land at village Panjudero, by a police official.
Talking to the media, Ghinwa claimed that the land was her property and was forcibly occupied by Sadullah Narejo and his accomplices.
Sindh High Court Larkana circuit bench has issued a stay order in Ghinwa's favour. On the other hand, Narejo claimed that he had purchased the land from his cousin, Ghulam Hyder Narejo, in 2010. Meanwhile, Naudero SHO Khalid Sarki said that he had deployed police officials and barred Sadullah from harvesting crops till the final decision was made by the relevant authorities. The protesters dispersed after being assured of swift action by Larkana DSP Yar Muhammad Rind.
