Nawabshah menace

Published August 28, 2008

WE, the residents of Masjid Road, Nawabshah, want to draw the attention of the relevant authorities towards a serious law and order problem. For the past many days we have been terrorised by some people. The other day, around 10pm, some such persons came to the area on their bikes and started firing.

However, when a resident called the police, they attacked the police along with the area people and forced the shops to shut after collecting bhatta money. We hope the government will take action in this regard.
