Imran Khan takes notice of the Khanewal mob lynching incident. According to the reports, the incident took place in front of a police station in Mian Channu, where a man was strangled to death by a mob for alleged blasphemy, and police played the role of a silent spectator.
Because of the tragic incident, Prime Minister has ordered the Inspector General of Punjab police to submit a report on action taken against the culprits and the police who failed in their duty.
“We have zero tolerance for anyone taking the law into their own hands & mob lynchings will be dealt with the full severity of the law. Have asked Punjab IG for a report on action taken against perpetrators of the lynching in Mian Channu & against the police who failed in their duty,” he said in a tweet.
