TIMERGARA: The victim of a house robbery case has demanded the inspector general of police Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and other police officials to issue orders to the police station concerned to lodge the first information report (FIR) of the case in Khall area in Dir Lower and bring the culprits to justice.

He added that they visited the Khall Police Station along with the area elders to get the FIR registered. However, he said the police were hesitant to register the FIR and lodged the report in the daily chronicle. When contacted, the police officials said that they had already lodged the FIR and an inquiry into the matter was underway.
