Family members of missing persons of the district took out another rally, this time in Kabal on Thursday. They demanded the government resolve the issue of illegal detention and send their loved ones back home.
A group of around 35 women and children marched from Koza Bandha to Kanjo Brigade, holding pictures of their missing relatives, banners and placards inscribed with their demands.
Saba Jan, a resident of Kanjo, led the rally and said all the women participating in the rally had a husband, son or some male relative who had been missing for a long time.
Reiterating the demand she made in a similar protest on March 4, Jan said if their men had committed any crime they should be produced in court. She added they would accept the court’s decision but their illegal detention was inacceptable.
Jan mentioned her husband and two sons had been missing since 2009.
