SANGHAR, May 14: A heavy contingent of police, led by the TPO of Shahdadpur, Aslam Langah, stormed the local press club on Monday. He also kicked the doors of the club and used abusive language against journalists.

The TPO said that he was looking for a reporter of "Daily Ummat", Irshad Zafar Bukhari.

The President of the press club, Ramzan Panhwar, asked the TPO to behave and not to use abusive language.

An urgent general body meeting was called by the members of the press club which condemned the highhandedness of the police.
