Journalists seek DSP, SHO suspension, withdrawal of FIR

ISLAMABAD: The National Press Club (NPC) has demanded of the Rawalpindi administration to suspend immediately DSP and SHO of Westridge Police Station for filing concocted FIR against a reporter, says a press release on Thursday.

While strongly condemning registration of baseless FIR against reporter of The News Shakeel Anjum, President Farooq Faisal Khan, Secretary Sheryar Khan in their joint statement said that registration of the FIR against the journalist for filing news shows malafide intention of the police officials. They warned that journalists of twin cities would compel to take steps if the FIR was not withdrawn against Shakeel Anjum till Monday.
