Gilgit, February 26: Peaceful demonstrators belonging to Gojal valley were baton charged by the police in Gilgit city a few hours ago. There are reports about arrest of three students. Some leaders of the demonstration were injured. Those arrested have been shifted to the city police station, Gilgit.
The protesters were demanding quicker action for release of water from the lake formed on Hunza river due to a landslide disaster forty five days ago. They also chanted slogans against the home secretary, who is also the director general of GBDMA.
Shame to democratic Government and their martial law approach, Musharaf is more better then these idiot politician and their immature approaches. Shame to Wazir Baig and others they given gift of baton charge to their supporter.
