LARKANA: The Naudero police on Tuesday arrested a man for allegedly torturing two boys who he suspected had stolen his nine pigeons.
The news went viral when the two boys, aged about eight-nine years, were publicly beaten up at Kalar Chowk with their hands tied to their back.
One of the boys fainted while they were made to prostrate on the road for long.
The man, Mohammad Ali Ansari, also rejected onlookers’ repeated requests to have mercy on them.
Someone secretly shot the video with his mobile phone camera and sent it to Larkana DIG Abdulullah Shaikh via WhatsApp. The DIG ordered immediate arrest of Ansari, who was later picked up from his house and booked.

He beat them up based on SUSPICION of theft? Not even any proof?
How about reporting the matter to the police, having the matter investigated, and then an appropriate punishment meted out by authorities, IF they are found guilty.

Now the time comes for a Qisas punishment. the boys should be given sticks to retribute the wrong done to them and at least same number of the persons should be present there at the time of retribution at the same locality. this will hopefully, reduce the public crime in the country.

Agreed these children took his pigeon. A fair warning was enough not this type of punishment to these innocents. Mr.Ansari, haven't you done wrong when young as these children?

Boys are in rural areas are actually become more bigger, stronger and courageous compare to their age , they even rob the people at the age of 12 and 13, due to their age factors they have immunity, so the agrieved party usually has no choice but to teach lesson at their own..
