DADU, April 30: A woman from Sehwan town has appealed to the president, the chief justice of the Supreme Court to provide her protection from an influential doctor and relatives of her late husband. The widow, Mah Bibi, 70, wife of Ibrahim Baloch, said that they were issuing threats and forcing her to leave her house.
She was talking to reporters at her house on Sunday.
She said that a medical officer of the Sindh health department had rented her shop but was not paying rent for eight years.
She said that close relatives of her husband were issuing threats of dire consequences and asking her to leave Sehwan as they wanted to occupy property worth Rs3.5 million including her two shops, house and a plot.
