The protesters accused the police of paving the way for the release of four accused of the murder of a local landlord, Saleem Arain.

They alleged that some Shar tribesmen had murdered Arain and threatened that if they were released, a protest movement would be launched.

MEETING: A meeting of the Government Secondary School Teachers’ Association, Kingri taluka, was held in Kolab Jial on Tuesday.
