As part of its strategy to put pressure on the government and the law enforcement agencies to recover missing persons from the Shia community, the Joint Action Committee for Shia Missing Persons has announced it will stage sit-ins across the country today.
The announcement was made on Saturday by leaders of the action committee on the second day of an ongoing sit-in protest in front of the Mazar-e-Quaid.
The Joint Action Committee, a joint platform of representative organisations of the Shia community, had given an ultimatum to the government to produce all missing persons in court by March 31. âAfter receiving no positive response from the government, the committee announced the start of a protest from April 2,â said the sit-in organisers.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan will hold conversation with the public and respond to their questions on telephone during a live broadcast on television, radio and digital media at 11.30 am on Sunday (today).
The public can contact the prime minister on phone number 051-9224900.
Senator Faisal Javed said that the prime minister will receive phone calls from the citizens and respond to their problems and questions. The purpose of hearing live calls is to have direct contact with public and know their problems, he said.
Sometime ago the prime minister had started series of attending phone calls of citizens. The impression was that the prime minister picks live calls. But after that a recorded programme ‘Aap Ka Wazir-e-Azam Aap Kay Sath’ (your prime minister is with you) was aired. The recorded programme got a mixed reaction from the public.
