December 10, 2018

KARACHI: Police on Sunday baton-charged protesting employees of the Port Qasim Authority to stop them from reaching Governor House, where Prime Minister Imran Khan is staying after flying to the city earlier today (Sunday). The employees had been staging protest outside the Karachi Press Club for over two months against non-payment of their salaries. Protestors were pushed back by water cannons while a large contingent of police placed hurdles.
