KARACHI: Protesters seek recovery of missing JSQM leader
KARACHI, June 13: The Jeay Sindh Students Federation on Wednesday held a protest demonstration outside the Karachi Press Club against alleged abduction of the general-secretary of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz, Dr Safdar Sarki, and other missing persons.
Holding banners and placards inscribed with their demands, a large number of protesters chanted slogans against the government. Masood Kandhro, Karim Marfani, Tariq Mugheri, Ali Mugheri, Shahnawaz Tebani and Khalid Channa addressed the demonstrators.
They said several nationalist leaders were picked up by law-enforcing agencies and their whereabouts had not been disclosed. They said if these people were required in any case they should be formally arrested and tried in courts and their relatives be allowed to meet them.
They demanded immediate release of all those picked up by the agencies.
The protesters said Dr Safdar Sarki was picked up more than a year ago but the police and other law-enforcing agencies were showing their ignorance about his arrest.
They maintained that the establishment was systematically crushing the nationalist leadership in the smaller federating units.–PPI
