Dadu town police are clueless about two kidnapped children, Imran Ahmed Soomro, 5, and Shahmir Solangi, 8.

A large number of people, including social workers and members of the affected families, took out a protest rally in the town against the failure of the Dadu police to recover the kidnapped children.

Participants of the rally, after marching on various thoroughfares, converged in front of the press club and demanded recovery of the children.

Addressing the rally, Nawab Solangi said that his son Shahmir Solangi was in the possession of influential people in Sehwan Sharif but police were reluctant to conduct raids.
