QUETTA: The president of Quetta Bar Association (QBA), Advo­cate Qari Rehmatullah, has annou­nced boycott of court proceedings to lodge their protest against police action against lawyers at Hub judicial complex. Speaking at a press conference along with senior lawyers, Mir Attaullah Lango, Asghar Khan Mando­khail and Akbar Shah on late Thursday evening, the QBA president said that the Sindh police entered the judicial complex and allegedly assau­lted three lawyers, including Hub Bar Associ­ation president Hammal Mari. Demanding immediate action against the police officials responsible for the incident, Advocate Qari Rehmatullah said lawyers would boycott the courts and display black flags outside the bar room to protest the incident. The complex remains under Sindh police control, despite multiple appeals to senior officials, including the Inspector General of Police, for its release, he said.
