LAHORE: Law Minister Rana Sanaullah heard both MPA Tahir Sindhu and AC Asif Shah whom he (the MPA) had allegedly manhandled.

The provincial administration and the PMS officers are also angry over it and are supporting the aggrieved AC.

The officials said the minister heard both the MPA and the AC as the head of the committee constituted by the chief minister to look into the issue.

He reportedly told the AC that a decision would be taken by the chief minister after the submission of the inquiry report by the committee. He nevertheless asked the Kot Momin administration to end strike. But officials said the striking officials did not agree with the minister’s advice and were still holding their protest camp in Kot Momin.
