SHO, 11 policemen booked on court's order.

SUKKUR -- A case was registered against a station house officer (SHO) and 11 other policemen on Friday in compliance of an order issued by Sindh High Court's Sukkur circuit on a complaint that they intruded a house, manhandled its occupants, including women, and took away a motorcycle and several other valuables from inside.

Complainant Yasmeen Sheikh had filed a petition in the court stating that Rohri SHO Sanaullah Khoharo and the official in charge of a police check-post Jaji Katpar along with 10 other policemen recently barged into her house and manhandled her and her family members, including her elderly mother Shehzadi Sheikh and sister-in-law Imamzadi Sheikh.

After hearing her grievance, the court ordered Sukkur SSP Singhar Malik to get an FIR registered at the Rohri police station against the police officer and his team.

Accordingly, the SHO and 11 members of his team were booked in the case.
