Khyber Pakhtunkhwa [Pakistan], June 30 (ANI): The relatives of missing persons from a tribal district in Pakistan s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province staged a protest outside the Peshawar Press Club on Monday, seeking safe and early recovery of their dear ones.
The protesters from Mohmand tribal district were carrying banners and placards inscribed with slogans, The News International reported. The speakers at the demonstration said they had been requesting the Pakistani authorities to end their sufferings since long but no action was taken for that.
The protesters said their relatives should be produced before the court of law and awarded punishment if they were found guilty instead of making them disappear.
