LAHORE – The police is supposed to be helpful to us right? However, they often end up being a menace for innocent people.
This story tells about an incident that could have gone from ugly to uglier in seconds.
Siblings staying together in a hostel room made a mob gather outside their room while the brother was away and the sister was inside alone in the room. The mob wanted answers as to why a girl and a guy were together in a room.
A girl tweeted a shocking incident!
“A friend of mine who lives in another city came Lahore on weekend and stayed with her brother in his hostel. Someone from neighborhood saw her going inside the room. The person called others and almost 20-25 people came outside their room started yelling.”
“The boy had gone outside to buy some food. The girl was alone inside. She got scared. She called her brother who told her to not open the door until he comes. Meanwhile, the neighbors shouting ‘darwaza kholo, kyaa ho rha hai yaha?”
The neighbours also called the police to intervene.
When the girl tried her best to prove her identity as a sister, the police denied and took her brother away,
“The neighbors called the police. The boy had reached by then. He told police that it was his sister and his hostel administration knows that. The police came inside, checked the room and asked for the identity of the girl. The girl was not carrying any identification document.”
“It is quite very normal. The family keeps the identification documents of the girls. However, she had scanned image of her CNIC which she showed to the police. The police still took her brother with them. At the corner of the street, they asked him for some money.”
“This is our police and us. Even after confirming their relationship police took some money to settle the matter. On the other end, the muhallay walay did not keep to their own business. It wasn’t their right to go there and knock at their door. I don’t know when we will learn this.”
