Moreover, a police official said Qureshi used to be presented before the court without handcuffs. Police investigators don’t get official vehicles to transport inmates and sometimes have to use personal vehicles for the purpose, he lamented.
The police have not yet been able to trace the whereabouts of the Dua Mangi kidnap accused who escaped from policy custody last week. Five people have since been detained for interrogation in connection with investigation into the accused’s escape.
