یہ ظلم ہے۔۔ بنیادی انسانی حقوق کی خلاف ورزی ہے۔ سی ٹی او لیاقت ملک صاحب کو ایکشن لینا چاہیے ان وارڈنز کے خلاف۔#Lahore pic.twitter.com/ImobRC1X9J

The bystanders tried to rescue the youth which initially did not hinder the police officers from continuing to beat the youngster. However, after several tries, the youth went away on a motorbike, escaping the persecution.
The journalist demanded the chief traffic officer to take appropriate action against the culprits, calling their actions a violation of basic human rights.
