Pakistani authorities sack influential police officer over lynching

An influential senior Pakistani police officer was fired on Monday in connection with the public lynching of two brothers which shocked the nation and prompted the Supreme Court to take suo moto action.

Zulifqar Cheema, the Regional Police Officer of Gujranwala division of Punjab province, has been blamed by the public and media for parading the bodies of criminals killed by police. Civil society groups said such actions had led to a mob lynching the two young brothers in Sialkot district on August 15.

Hafiz Mughees, 21, and Hafiz Muneeb, 16, were going to visit relatives in Buttar village when some people caught them and accused them of being robbers. In a brazen display of mob justice, they killed the brothers by beating them with sticks and iron rods in the presence of policemen. The mob then hung up the bodies of the two brothers in a square.

Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani ordered the suspension of Sialkot district police chief Waqar Chohan, a federal government officer on deputation with the Punjab government, on the recommendation of Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif.

A case has been registered against 13 policemen and 17 civilians for their role in the brutal murders and 14 of them have been arrested.

However, the Punjab government had so far refrained from taking action against Cheema, considered a "blue-eyed boy" of the Chief Minister.

There are also reports that Chohan, who was placed under house arrest for 30 days, has managed to escape.

Cheema had killed several outlaws, including the notorious Nanu Goraya who was extradited from Malaysia with the help of Interpol, in "staged" gun battles.

Even Interpol had expressed concern at Pakistani authorities killing outlaws in "staged shootouts". It had also said it would not help Pakistani authorities if they kill criminals in this manner.

I was shocked to see and hear of this happening. I curse all the people involved of the murders of these sweet brothers. They were muslim brothers unlike the non-muslims who allowed and took part. I hope there mothers and generations to come suffer in this world and the thereafter. These Pakistanis are animals and diserve to all be hung. I am ashamed to be pakistani. Americans are right, there is no order amongst muslims. THEY WERE ONLY KIDS YOU HEARTLESS SIALKOTES, COWARDS.
