he investigations in Zainab’s murder case finally bore fruit. The reactions of public officials however, was shameful.
The prime suspect involved in Zainab’s killing and a few other rape cases has finally been arrested by Punjab Police in Kasur after confirmation of the DNA match. The entire country has demanded justice for Zainab by hanging the killer publicly.
Yesterday, a press conference was held to announce the same. The conduct of public office holders, however, was shocking, to say the least.
Chief Minister (CM) Punjab, Shahbaz Sharif and Law Minister Punjab, Rana Sanaullah held a press conference to congratulate everyone involved in efforts to arrest the perpetrator.
A footage appeared on the social media in which Rana Sanaullah was dictating the victim’s father what to say and what not.
