DIG South orders inquiry into viral video of women fighting in Karachi's Defence
Investigating police say the case challan has not yet been submitted
The Deputy Inspector General (DIG) South, Asad Raza, has ordered an inquiry into the circumstances surrounding a case registered following the viral video of two women fighting at a residential building in Karachi's Defence area. The inquiry will examine the reasons for the case registration and the facts surrounding the matter.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Investigation South, Fida Hussain Janwari, will conduct the probe. The case challan has not yet been submitted, and sections relating to theft and snatching have been removed. A plain-clothed official seen in CCTV footage is believed to be from the Korangi Police and may be questioned. The footage, which has raised questions about the police's role, shows police personnel dragging a young man away, and an official Vigo vehicle is also present at the scene.
A woman named Noor-ul-Ain, who was injured, has also released a video stating she is bleeding from her nose, mouth, and eye, and claims her hair was pulled out. The SSP Korangi, Fida Hussain Janwari, strongly denied any connection to the video, stating that neither he nor his family are involved. He threatened legal action against those who circulated the video, accusing them of a deliberate attempt to malign his character.
