A relative of the victim, Yaseen Deenari, told newsmen in the casualty department of the hospital that a week back Qasim was arrested by the Sujawal police on the charges of stealing the television of one Sadooro. He was kept at the Haider Chandio police post of the Sujawal police where police severely beat him up.

He said that police released him after receiving a bribe from him, and added that ever since his release he was feeling pain in his abdomen and bleeding while urinating and passing stool.

He was subsequently admitted to the Chandka Medical College Teaching Hospital.

His relative said that they will plead to the court for providing him justice.

ARRESTED: Bagan alias Bagoo Jatoi, the alleged killer of four policemen in Larkana, has been arrested on Friday.

He is being kept at the Civil Line police station under tight security where different teams of police were interrogating him. No one was being allowed to meet him.

He is believed to be the abductor of Hussain Bakhsh Narejo and Manthar Solangi.
