In what appears to be follow-up harassment, unidentified men on Saturday attacked the lawyer of the schoolteacher who had been tortured by a former Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) lawmaker. According to details, Shahid Nazir, the lawyer of schoolteacher Nafees Khan, was on his way to the court on Saturday morning when supporters of former PPP MPA Aslam Madhianna attacked him, and subjected him to severe torture, fracturing his left arm. The lawyers of the area have announced a strike to protest against the incident. Madhiana was booked by police in a case for breaking the legs of the aged schoolteacher, who had been raising voice against his alleged crimes.
