FAISALABAD: (Dunya News) – Certain police officials are trying to save Pakistan Muslim League (N) MPA Rana Shoaib Idrees, reports reveal. According to the reports, important file of the case has also been misplaced.

Rana Shoaib Idrees had broken into Khurrianwala Police Station in Faisalabad on 20th of July, 2014 after midnight and got a prisoner, charged with murder, freed from Police custody after beating a police officer.

It has been revealed through reports that certain police officials are trying to save Rana Shoaib Idrees.

The accused had attacked the police station last year as well but the file of that case has been misplaced. According to the police officials, a case has been registered against the Additional Sub-Inspector (ASI) and Head Constable who had misplaced the file. Action is also being taken against the Sub Inspector (SI) who had leaked the information about police raid on Rana Shoaib’s house prior to the raid.

Rana Shoaib Idrees had appeared before the Police on 27th of July and got his statement recorded. Shoaib had refused to accept all the charges against him and had claimed that the cases were politically motivated. PML-N MPA had been charged under Article 540 for attacking police station, torturing police officer, assisting a prisoner in fleeing from police custody, terrorizing government officials and interfering in administrative affairs.

City Police Officer (CPO) Faisalabad had directed Superintendant Police (SP) Jaranwala to investigate the matter.

Previously police had raided several places to catch Rana Shoaib Idrees including houses of two former MPAs of Faisalabad. His in-laws’ house in Lahore was also raided by Police but Shoaib had managed to flee by that time.
