The widow of a man killed in an alleged false encounter in Pakistan’s Jhang city claims that the police are harassing her for filing a murder complaint against them, including a sub-inspector involved in the fake encounter case.
According to Dawn newspaper, citing Bibi’s appeal to Jhang magistrate Kamran Khalid, her husband, Ghulam Jaffar, was arrested while taking a bath at hamlet Bela Bangash by satellite police sub-inspector Amanullah Qamar and other police officers, according to Bibi’s appeal to Dawn.
Her competitors accompanied the police when they came to arrest him, she claimed, and her husband was later slain in the phoney encounter. She further claimed that the police searched her home and harassed her to prevent her from submitting the petition.
These charges are false, according to Sub-Inspector Amanullah Qamar, who also stated that a judicial investigation is underway. According to Dawn, he also stated that he would record his statement before the inquiry officer.
