Journalists call for colleague’s release

QUETTA: Local journalists on Saturday demanded the release of their colleague who had allegedly been detained by the Anti-Terrorist Force (ATF) without having been implicated in any case.

Babu Sumalani — a BNP activist, released recently after spending six months in intelligence agencies’ detention — claimed that he had seen Javid Lehri being “tortured” in a detention cell. “We want the government to stop intimidating Baloch journalists,” said Muhammad Azam Ulfat, the president of the Quetta Union of Journalists.
