KARACHI: Opposition Leader in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh has killed a poisonous snake that appeared inside the prison where he is being kept on the orders on the court.
Muhammad Ali Baloch, a spokesman for the opposition leader, said, “A poisonous snake found in the room of Haleem Adil Sheikh which was pinpointed by a servant who went there to deliver breakfast.”
“After seeing the snake, Sheikh killed it,” Baloch said, adding that the presence of the snake in Haleem Adil Sheikh’s room put a question mark on the police performance.
“Conspiracies are being hatched against Sheikh as police have become a slave to the Pakistan People’s Party,” he alleged. Meanwhile, Additional Inspector General of Police (AIG) Karachi Ghulam Nabi Memon has sought a report from the authorities regarding the appearance of the snake.
AIG Memon telephoned DIG CIA Arif Hanif and inquired after the matter. The Karachi police chief ordered Arif Hanif to investigate the matter that how a poisonous snake appeared in Sheikh’s cell and submit the report at earliest.
Earlier today (Friday), an anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Karachi sent Haleem Adil Shaikh to jail on judicial remand till February 25. The court heard a case pertaining to aerial firing and creating a disturbance in by-elections in Karachi’s PS-88 constituency on February 16.
