ISLAMABAD – The Rawalpindi-Islamabad Union of Journalists warned of protests at Pakistan People’s Party events if it did not reveal the identities of workers who beat up a Geo News cameraperson last week.
In a protest organized outside the National Press Club, journalists expressed surprise over the PPP’s silence over the incident.
Shiraz Gardezi was assaulted allegedly by PPP activists outside the National Accountability Bureau where Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and his father Asif Ali Zardari who is also the co-chairperson of the party were summoned.
