QUETTA, Oct 31: Relatives of two detained men have announced plans to hold two demonstrations, one in Quetta and the other in Islamabad, on Tuesday in protest against failure of the authorities to bring them before a court of law.

The protesters will march through the streets before heading towards the Governor’s House in Quetta, the relatives of Ali Asghar Bungulzai and Saeedur Rehman Bungulzai told a group of demonstrators assembled outside the press club on Monday.

Another group of protesters will proceed to Islamabad to demonstrate in front of the United Nations office against the detention of Ali Asghar and Saeedur Rehman, they said.
