Children hold protests against police
QUETTA, April 21: Dozens of children staged a demonstration outside the press club on Friday against police and authorities concerned for their failure to recover a girl who was abducted from the city three weeks back.
The protesters holding placards chanted slogans against the administration and the police for failing to recover Shagufta Paracha who was kidnapped on March 29 from the Fatima Jinnah Road.
Later, the girl’s father, Raiz Paracha, in a press conference appealed to the government to direct the law-enforcement agency concerned to recover his daughter.
He said that the government should take notice of the growing lawlessness in the provincial capital as kidnapping for ransom, robbery incidents and snatching of vehicles at gunpoint had become extremely common.
He said that he had got an FIR registered at the police station concerned and had also met government officials but in vain.
He said that it was the responsibility of the government to protect the life and property of citizens.
He strongly demanded of the government to recover his daughter to uphold the writ of law.
