ANP seeks probe into harassment of family in Mirali.

Awami National Party's parliamentary leader in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Sardar Hussain Babak on Tuesday asked the government to investigate the alleged harassment of a family by security personnel in Khaisor village of Mirali tehsil in North Waziristan.

Mr Babak, who is provincial general secretary of the party, submitted a call-attention notice to the KP Assembly, drawing the attention of the house to the Khaisoor incident after a video interview of a young boy went viral on social media.

In the video interview, Hayat, a resident of Khaisor village, tells another local youngster how the family has been facing harassment due to frequent visits by two personnel to his home after his father and brother were picked up by security forces. He says he is the only male member at home and the two security personnel, he names one of them, frequently enter his house unannounced.

He requests the authorities to take action to stop these unwanted visits. He says his father and brother might not be freed but the security personnel's visits should be stopped, as there are women in his house.

The interview that went viral on social media resulted in large protests in Mirali on Sunday. The protesters demanded that security personnel violating privacy and sanctity of homes be punished.
