HYDERABAD: Badin remained shut on Thursday as tension prevailed between Zulfiqar Mirza and his political opponents from the Pakistan Peoples Party. The Anjuman Tajraan Badin and Tajir Ittehad called for a shutter-down to protest non-arrest of Mirza. The leaders of these representative bodies of traders, Imtiaz Ali Memon and Taj Muhammad Mallah, are complainants in two of the four FIRs lodged against Mirza in Badin. The two, who joined the PPP last month, allege that Mirza and his supporters attacked their shops on May 3 and robbed them of Rs7.7 million in cash.
