Father’s appeal to govt
PESHAWAR, March 16: Father of an 18-year-old boy, who was injured when a tear gas shell hit him during last month’s violent protests, has appealed to the government to help meet the cost of his treatment.
He was hit by a gas-shell during the last month’s violent protests.
Abid Gul of Pir Ghaib colony, Dalazak road, told newsmen at the Peshawar Press Club on Thursday that his son Khaista Gul had not been involved in any demonstration of Feb 15 against the blasphemous cartoons.
He said that his son had left his shop for home and hit by a gas-shell fired on protesters.
He said the shell had injured him critically. Gul was rushed to the Lady Reading Hospital in a rickshaw.
Abid Gul said he had sold his shop for the treatment of his son, as he had no other source of money. Doctors had discharged his son from the hospital without his full recovery.
