Arif Khan Sarmast Khel is a courageous and steadfast PTI worker from Mianwali. The arrest of his four brothers and one son is a deeply troubling example of what appears to be unnecessary and retaliatory action by the Mianwali Police.
The role of the police is to protect citizens and enforce the law, not to pressure political workers by targeting their families.
Mianwali Police must remember that the exercise of power is never above the law. Every action by law enforcement must remain within legal limits and respect the fundamental rights of citizens.
