Police officials used teargas and aerial firing to disperse a protest rally by the Shia Action Committee (SAC) near Numaish Chowrangi in Karachi on the ban imposed by Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) on their website shiakilling.com on Tuesday.
The protesters wanted to go to PTA office on Shahrah-e-Faisal to get a complaint registered against PTA’s move.
The law enforcers had told the participants of the rally that they will not be allowed to reach their destination and the protest route was blocked. However the protesters, mostly youngsters, overcame the blockade and moved on.
The protesters also threw stones at the police officials present in the area and burnt tyres. Groups of new protesters joined the demonstration later.
No arrests have been made so far.
