HYDERABAD, May 29: A woman of Mirpurkhas has asked the Chief Justice of Pakistan to provide justice to her against influential people of the area who were harassing her family.

Zulekha wife of Mohammad Ibrahim said in a press conference on Tuesday said that Sattar Halepoto and Anwar Panhwar demanded hand of her daughter and on refusal even tried to kidnap her. Not only this, they somehow managed to implicate her son Mumtaz in a false case. These people were threatening the family of dire consequences, hence they should be protected against such elements, she said.
