He was let go only after public pressure, the scribe said.The journalist also said that though District Police Officer Mohammad Shoaib had ordered the cops at the Sardari Police Station to register the case as per the law but the police used "delaying tactics and did not include the relevant sections of the law in the FIR".The scribe pointed that though his leg was fractured due to the torture but the police wrote in the FIR that he has suffered minor injuries.As per the complaint, five names of the PTI have been registered.
