\nA couple who contracted a love marriage has appealed to the authorities for protection, alleging threats to their lives and property from relatives.
\nMuhammad Rahim Karyo, a resident of Sakrand, and Sajida Karyo, a resident of Saeedabad, held a press conference at the Mirpurkhas Press Club after contracting a love marriage at a court in Sehwan. They appealed for protection against alleged threats from their relatives.
\nAddressing the press conference, Sajida Karyo and her husband Muhammad Rahim Karyo said they had contracted a love marriage at the Sehwan court approximately one-and-a-half months ago. They alleged that Sajida\u2019s relatives and former husband had since been issuing threats to kill them.
\nThe couple alleged that they faced threats to their lives and property from Sajida\u2019s former husband Sajjad Karyo, his brothers Abbas Ali, Zamin Ali and Ayaz Ali, as well as other relatives including Rasool Bakhsh, Ghulam Hussain, Urs, Javed Ali, Sajjad Ali, Tariq, Farooq, Jabbar, Qadeer Chhutto, Abdul Karim, Ameer, Moso, Ilyas, Noro and Majeed Karyo, besides other unidentified individuals.
\nMuhammad Rahim and Sajida Karyo further alleged that a case had also been registered against the husband and his in-laws, accusing them of allegedly making false claims regarding one-and-a-half tolas of gold and jewellery and cash amounting to Rs9.8 million.
\nThey demanded a transparent investigation into the case and called for its withdrawal if the allegations were found to be false.
\nThe couple said they had been living in severe fear and distress since their marriage and claimed that they faced threats to their lives and property from the former husband, relatives and their alleged associates.
\nThey appealed to the Inspector General of Police Sindh, DIG Mirpurkhas, SSP Mirpurkhas, SSP Umerkot and other senior officials to provide them immediate protection and take legal action against those allegedly threatening them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
