Community Demands Swift Action After Three Children Injured in Eid Day Assault Over Viral Photo
Nowshera: In a disturbing incident in Alai village, three children Saddam Khisan, Tariq Jamil, and Abbas Khan were reportedly beaten after visiting the residence of Naeem Shaheen, chairman of Tehreek-e-Inqilab, to offer Eid-ul-Fitr greetings.
According to local sources, the children took photographs with Shaheen, which later circulated widely on social media. The images allegedly upset supporters of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam MPA Shah Khisan Khan, prompting them to attack the young boys.
The children sustained injuries during the assault and were rushed to a nearby hospital for urgent medical care. Local residents and community leaders expressed shock and outrage over the incident, condemning the violence against minors.
“This is an alarming act of brutality. Children should never be targeted for political affiliations or social media posts,” said a local elder, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Community members have urged the government to take immediate action against those responsible and ensure strict punishment. “Justice must be served swiftly to prevent such incidents in the future,” they said.
Law enforcement authorities have reportedly initiated an inquiry, but details on arrests or further actions remain limited. The incident has sparked widespread debate online, highlighting concerns over political intolerance and child safety in the region.
