They said that tensions had escalated significantly during the past four days, resulting in a series of alleged attacks and injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters alleged that a few days ago, individuals belonging to the opposing faction attacked their shop, during which <strong>Shoaib Malik and several other people were allegedly injured<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They further claimed that the following day, another alleged attack took place at a hotel, where gunfire was also reported. According to the protesters, <strong>Nazar Malik, Yasin Malik, Ramzan Malik, Asad Malik and Kamran Malik<\/strong> were injured in the incident and were still receiving treatment at a hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The affected individuals said the incidents had created fear and insecurity among their families and community members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They further alleged that after these incidents, <strong>Ismail Malik<\/strong> was returning home from work when he was allegedly attacked with sticks and punches near Military Road in Sukkur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the protesters, Ismail Malik sustained injuries in the alleged assault, while the attackers reportedly fled the scene after the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters expressed concern that despite several people allegedly being injured in the incidents, police had not yet registered their First Information Report (FIR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They said the alleged failure to register the case had caused serious concern among the affected families, who feared further escalation of the dispute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters also alleged that some members of the opposing faction were influential and had alleged links with criminal elements, which they claimed had prevented effective police action against them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The allegations made during the protest have not been independently verified, and the accused side has not publicly presented its position regarding the claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters demanded that police conduct a transparent and impartial investigation into all the reported incidents and immediately register an FIR based on their complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They also called for proper legal action against those allegedly responsible for the attacks and demanded justice for the injured individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters appealed directly to <strong>SHO Mansoor Attar, DIG Sukkur and SSP Sukkur<\/strong>, urging them to take immediate notice of the situation and ensure protection for the affected families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They said that the police should investigate the alleged attacks without discrimination and take action against anyone found responsible according to the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protesters emphasized that their primary demand was protection and justice and that they wanted the authorities to prevent the dispute from escalating further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They also called for the injured individuals to be provided with justice and for their complaints to be formally investigated through the legal process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protestors warned that if their demands were not addressed and they were not provided protection, they would be forced to expand their protest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The demonstration remained focused on the alleged attacks, the reported injuries and the demand for registration of a police case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The situation highlights the potential consequences of prolonged disputes between community factions, particularly when allegations of violence and retaliatory attacks emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local authorities are expected to examine the allegations, verify the reported incidents and determine whether criminal offences were committed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A transparent investigation would also be necessary to establish the facts, identify those responsible for any unlawful acts and ensure that both sides receive due process under the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For now, the protesting families are calling for immediate police intervention, protection and legal action, while further developments are awaited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SUKKUR Residents belonging to the Malik community from the Bachal Shah Miani area of Sukkur staged a
