LARKANA: Suspects allegedly having ties with the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) tortured an ASI at a police station in Larkana after the latter arrested them with bottles of alcohol.

The two suspects beat Asghar Mugehri before the SHO and other police officials at Waleed police station, where he was posted. The suspects beat him after Zulfiqar Jhakrani, who reportedly has ties with the PPP, came and directed them to do so.

The police official made a video of himself in his torn uniform and uploaded it on Facebook.

The senior superintendent of police has taken notice of the incident and ordered ASP Rizwan Tariq to hold inquiry. The ASP has recorded statements of the SHO and other officers at the police station.

Police have failed to take action against the suspects, Zulfiqar Jhakrani or the SHO so far. While, the victim has refused to speak any further on the incident until the investigation was over.
