Published in The News on December 1997




This is with reference to a news headline “Two cops suspended” (The News, December 2). According to the report, the only punishment the two got for robbing a scrap trader and beating him up was to report to Police Lines, Malir district, where apparently they will be made to do menial work which will deprive them from earning the thousands they would otherwise do.

But it should be taken for granted that after a few months the two police men will be able to “persuade” the right people to transfer them back to their original place of appointment, where they are free to beat up and rob as many people as they liked.
