KARACHI (Dunya News) – Rangers’ investigation committee on Saturday has started its probe into a firing incident that left Pakistan International Airlines’ (PIA) two employees dead during a protest outside Karachi international airport. Rangers questioned the people and officers of the security force who appeared in the media footage of the demonstration.
The committee also visited the scene of the incident and collected evidence from the area. The investigation committee also recorded the eye witness accounts of the incident.
According to the Rangers Spokesperson, a detailed questioning is underway from those citizens and officers who were shown during the media clips on that day.
A case against unknown culprits has also been registered in the airport’s police station.
Since the past five days, PIA employees apparently boycotted work against government’s decision to privatize the national airlines. The protesters are not willing for privatization of the company.
The suspension of suspending all flight operations came after two workers of the protesting company were killed on February 2nd, as they rallied towards Jinnah terminal in Karachi despite counter measures by the law enforcement agencies.
Ranger and Sindh Police personnel were deployed at the protesting site to contain the mob and deter their movement. The security personnel baton charged and used water cannon to disperse the protesters.
Allegedly an unidentified man opened fire during the march injuring two persons who succumbed to wounds later while under treatment in a local hospital.
