Published October 30, 2007

SAHIWAL, Oct 29: The body of a police ASI was exhumed on court orders for post mortem after his relatives suspected he was poisoned by his wife. The ASI, Abdul Qadir, was found dead in his Police lines residence on Aug 25, this year. He was laid to rest in his ancestral Chak 250/GB, Toba Tek Singh.

The brothers of the late ASI submitted in the court that Qadir was issueless and his wife, in order to grab the family property, poisoned him.

The district and sessions judge appointed Judicial Magistrate Mazher Farid and Dr Munir Ahmed Qadri with a medical team to exhume the body.

Body specimens have been sent for chemical analysis.

ELECTROCUTED: A youth from Sargodha was electrocuted here at Pull Bazar on Monday.

Naveed Ahmed was unloading the goods from a truck in front of a shop when he accidentally touched the overhead electricity wire. He died on the spot.

MMA: The Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal will remain intact and enter no election alliance.

MMA’s Punjab President Liaqat Bloch said this during a press conference at the residence of Sheikh Shahdi Hamid.

However, he said MMA could consider seat adjustments with the PPP, Tehrik-e-Insaf, PML (N) and ANP. He said the government had levied many taxes on the direction of the World Bank. — Correspondent
