HYDERABAD, Jan 20: A group of people, including human rights activists, observed a token hunger strike outside the press club here on Monday to protest against the kidnapping of nine family members of a peasant.
The peasant, Mannu Bheel, told journalists a landlord of the Sanghar district, Abdur Rehman Marri, had kidnapped his mother, father, wife and children.
He said an FIR was registered with the Jhuddo police station but no action had been taken in the matter so far.
Sindh education minister Irfanullah Marwat visited the hunger strike camp and assured the protesters efforts would be made to recover the kidnap victims.
