MANSEHRA: Unidentified persons stole an electric transformer in Oghi late Friday night, locals said.
“The police should investigate and bring to justice thieves, who removed the transformer while it was electrifying a vast area at that time,” area resident Anwar Tanoli, told reporters on Saturday.
Tanoli, flanked by dozens of people from different villages, said that Peshawar Electricity Supply Company should immediately install the new transformer to supply electricity to villagers.
“I am astonished how thieves disconnected high transmission lines to remove electric transformer which was functional at the time of its removal and Police should take those involved to justice,” he said.
Tanoli said that if Pesco didn’t restore electricity supply to the affected villages within the next 12 hours, people would take to the streets to block Darband-Oghi road for an indefinite period.
