SAHIWAL: President orders action against five officials
SAHIWAL, Feb 13: President Gen Pervez Musharraf has ordered strict action against five officials who allegedly tried to protect some dacoits.
Naseem Akhtar, a widow of Chak 90/6-R, disclosed in her complaint to the president that on Oct 25, 2003, four dacoits entered her house, two of them gang-raped her daughter, and they made off with her stock of goats worth Rs20,000.
However, the DSP for investigation, in connivance with UC 92/6-R Nazim Muhammad Abdullah and three others, discharged the case against the accused despite the fact that the medical report had confirmed that her daughter was gang-raped. The Punjab IGP has been asked to file a report with the president.
ASI SENTENCED: Anti-corruption judge Sajjad Ahmad Chaavan awarded three years of rigorous imprisonment to an ASI for implicating two men in a case and accepting a bribe for their release.
Sources said ASI Mukhtar Ahmed had implicated one Irshad Rahi and his nephew and released them after illegal gratification at the Grain-market Police Station in 1997.
APPLICATION FORMS: The Punjab Public Service Commission has invited applications for filling posts in the special education and health departments by the end of February, but application forms are not available at the local branch of National Bank of Pakistan, those wishing to apply have found out.
