FAISALABAD: An associate of PML-N leader Rana Sanaullah was recently kidnapped and thrashed by masked men.

Mirza Abdul Malik, who remained chairman of union council 106, claims in a video that has gone viral on social media that masked men had kidnapped and severely tortured him a few days ago and left him on the expressway. He also shows the marks of torture.

The family of the former law minister said the matter of Malik’s torture would be brought into the notice of the Amnesty International.

Rana Sanaullah’s wife told reporters that their supporters were being harassed and tortured. She said the issue of torture must be probed so that justice could be ensured.
