Author: Agencies

Sindh Police Inspector General Kaleem Imam on Monday directed to take back security from Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) lawmakers and those affiliated with the party, police sources said.

According to sources, those PPP MNAs and MPAs who no longer enjoy security include MPA Shehla Raza, local government minister Saeed Ghani, MNA Agha Rafiullah and others.

The additional police mobiles, earlier given to the PPP lawmakers, were summoned to the headquarters. The PPP leaders were given security in view of threats, upon the behest of Chief Minister Sindh Murad Ali Shah, sources said.

On the issue, Saeed Ghani said that he never asked for increase in security, police had informed them of security threats and increased security for the PPP lawmakers.
