Lashari tribesmen block CJP’s route!

DADU: Protesters belonging to the Lashari tribe here blocked the CJP’s route on Saturday manifesting against the murder of their six confreres a day earlier.

According to details, many members of Lashari Tribe held the demonstration in order to block the route of JCP and other judges at the approach road of Manchar Lake and Pir Shakh.

Sources privy to NPTV have informed that six members of the Lashari tribe were gunned down by a group of Marri tribesmen near district jail here as they were going to court for a hearing of an attempted murder case.

It has further been insinuated that the attack carried out by Marris had a blessing of area police. A Lashari tribesman claimed that official weapons were used in the assault. 

Demonstrators, in order to stop the entourage of CJP,  burned tyres and put barricades causing a six-hour-long traffic jam. Meanwhile, CJP and his entourage did not visit a number of places and thus did not pass through the blocked road.
