LAHORE: Slamming slow progress in a probe into the gory incident of the killing of a family by CTD in Sahiwal, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Sirajul Haq claimed on Sunday that the government wants people to forget the tragedy.

Speaking to the media, he lamented that first people are killed and then branded as terrorists. “The Model Town incident occurred, Maulana Sami ul Haq was martyred and a person was abducted from Islamabad, but the police didn’t say anything till today.”

About the ongoing accountability drive in the country, the JI chief said the government should also be held accountable along with opposition politicians. “Accountability of both political and apolitical people should be carried out,” he stressed.

Last week, Haq had said that the entire nation was distressed at the killing of innocent citizens as the Sahiwal incident didn’t happen in night’s darkness but in broad daylight.

“The government opined that the martyred people had links with terrorists but mind doesn’t accept that a terrorist will take his family along in a car,” he said, adding that institutions had remained involved in such incidents in the past.
