Reports claim that the Barabri Party Pakistan leader then assaulted two LESCO meter readers, Asghar and Shahid, before leaving the site with the meter and his wife.
Following the incident, LESCO staff reported the tampered meter to senior officials, who subsequently visited the location. A formal complaint has been filed at Nawab Town Police Station, accusing Ahmed of assaulting LESCO staff and engaging in electricity theft.
