LARKANA: Activists of the Progressive Youth Alliance (PYA) held a demonstration outside the local press club on Saturday over a host of issues fomenting a trend of suicide and increasing sense of deprivation and unrest among various segments of society.
Speaking to the participants, Shoaib Chandio, Safiullah Sindhi, Shahzaib and others observed that there had been an increase in the incidents of honour killings, sexual harassment, violence against women and injustices in the province. Inaction on the part of police in such incidents was encouraging the culprits, they said.
The slow-paced prosecution and conviction in such cases had generated a wave of insecurity among the victims and their families, they noted.
