'I told them that I could not afford to serve 24 people for free. The SHO then directed his men to thrash me.' PHOTO: FILE
Qasim Ali said a few days ago, SHO Qamar Abbas, three ASIs and 20 constables visited Kashi Tikka Shop and placed an order for food. Ali said that they told him that they would not pay for the food.
“I told them that I could not afford to serve 24 people for free,” he said. “The SHO then directed his men to thrash me.”
He said that neighbouring shopkeepers intervened and stopped the police.
Ali said the officials had threatened to implicate him in false cases if he did not serve them free food. He asked the court to direct the police to register a case against the Shahdara SHO and the men who thrashed him and threatened to implicate him in fake cases.

@Asif: "Muft Khor police!! I have personally seen them getting free meals, tea, paan, cigarettes and a lot more!!" . Like it or not, Wardi waalas are de facto rulers of this aNdheyr nagri.
Shame on SHO and his men. Its strange that there was no noble person in entire party.
