QUETTA: Injured cadets of the October 24 attack on Police Training Center in Quetta expressed astonishment over their sudden recalling on the orders of a senior officer, ARY News reported.
As ARY News anchor Waseem Badami interviewed a number of cadets and their family members, a number of them raised the question that why all these passed out cadets were recalled to the training center with no formal explanation but the ‘order of a senior police officer’.
Was it for the PTI sit-in?
One of the relatives of an injured cadet claimed that the cadets were recalled to perform security duties in the November 2 sit-in announced by Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI).
“Call the boy… where will they send him? Islamabad, for what? Dharna,” said a family member of cadet on camera.
