Protest against policeman’s abduction enters second day in Lakki Marwat

Lakki Marwat witnessed the second day of a protest on Friday against the alleged kidnapping of a policeman. The Police Aman Committee and Kurrum Par residents held their demonstration outside the District Headquarters Complex at Tajazai. Many uniformed policemen joined the march, while others were in plainclothes. Notable attendees included MNA Sher Afzal Marwat, Marwat Bettani Tehreek chairman Inamullah Khan, and other district elders.

The protest, which caused the closure of government offices, also led to the Indus Highway being blocked, disrupting transport and causing delays for commuters. The protesters demanded the safe recovery of the missing officer and the registration of cases under relevant laws. They urged police authorities to honor their previous promises.

MNA Sher Afzal Marwat stressed that the Marwat tribe opposes terrorism in all forms and seeks peace in their region. He mentioned that his Begukhel clan had faced terrorist attacks that resulted in the loss of several tribe members.
