LAHORE – The SHO, duty officer, and four police personnel of Johar Town Police Station in Lahore have been suspended following a complaint by a woman Punjab Assembly member from PML-N.
According to reports, the incident involved police misconduct toward MPA Shazia Abid’s son and niece, which she raised during a Punjab Assembly session.
Shazia Abid stated that her son and niece were returning from university when Johar Town police officers stopped and harassed them.
