HYDERABAD, July 2: The activists of the SPSF (SB) and the youth wing of the party observed a token hunger strike outside the press club here on Tuesday.

They were protesting against the inordinate delay in the dispensation of justice in Mir Murtaza Bhutto case, acute shortage of water, construction of the greater Thal canal and the arrest of Ali Ahmad Palepoto, former SPSF (SB) president, and Majeed Siyal, former Youth Wing president.

They demanded the immediate release of the arrested leaders and arrest of the persons accused of the killing of Murtaza Bhutto and his companions.
