CHITRAL, May 27: For the first time in the history of Chitral, women took out a protest procession against the government and the elected representatives for breach of promise.

The women of Khorkashandeh, a suburban village of  the locality, were protesting against their forced eviction from a local pasture by police.

Marching through different bazaars, they reached the residence of senior civil judge and registered their protest against the injustice done to them. They were chanting slogans against MNA Maulana Abdul Akbar Chitrali on whose behest, they alleged, the police had evicted their cattle heads from the pasture.

They alleged that the police handled them brutally and relentlessly and that two of the herdsman are missing following the operation of police on Tuesday morning.

The women protesters said that they would starve to death as they had been deprived of their sole source of living.
