National Highway and Motorway Police incident in Sahiwal
Motorway police needs refresher courses to adopt polite behavior with citizens.
In Sahiwal, near Sadiq Feeds Mill on Multan Road, a heated argument broke out between Motorway Police and a young man named Abrar over a traffic fine.
Abrar stated that he was requesting the officers not to issue a fine for not wearing a helmet, but his plea was ignored and the fine was issued.

The deceased woman was from Chichawatni. The incident has caused grief and outrage among the public, and the affected family has appealed to senior authorities for justice.
