LAHORE:
Police officials took some odd steps against the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) apparently in order to please the government.
The steps varied from the arrest of DJ Butt to registration of a case against Butt Karahi restaurant for providing food to Pakistan Muslim LeagueNawaz (PML-N) Leader Maryam Nawaz and issuance of a threat letter ahead of the PDM rally.
The arrest of five suspected militants also took place in Shahdara. The measures taken by police were too overt in an effort to please their political bosses and invited much public criticism.
