ISLAMABAD, Jan 27 (APP): Prime Minister Imran Khan on Thursday took notice of the violence by Sindh police against the peaceful sit-in of Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P) and sought a report over the incident that led to the killing of a protestor.
“I have taken note of the violence used by Sindh police against MQM’s peaceful protest against Sindh’s LG law, & have called for a report from Interior Ministry, Sindh Chief Minister & Sindh Inspector General,” he said in a tweet.
The prime minister said action would be taken against the responsible persons in light of the findings of the report.
