Members of the Punjab Police are under scrutiny for involvement in serious criminal activities, including violations of law and order during recent protests. Police officers frequently block roads, use violence against peaceful PTI protesters, and suppress demonstrations demanding justice for Imran Khan.
Sources indicate that these actions are part of a pattern of lawlessness, with police officers disregarding legal protocols and human rights. Critics warn that such conduct could lead to severe legal consequences for those involved, including the potential application of Article 6 of the Constitution, which addresses high treason.
A social media statement warns that all officers involved in criminal acts will be held accountable under Article 6, emphasizing that disobedience to the law is considered treason. The message highlights that these police members are violating the law weekly, resorting to violence and roadblocks to suppress protests.
The protests, organized outside Adiala Jail, are part of a broader movement advocating for the rights of former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Police brutality and unlawful tactics are being employed to intimidate protesters and silence their voices.
