The PPP has urged the ECP to take action against police officers who stopped party chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and his cavalcade from visiting the shrine of Hazrat Jalaluddin Bukhari in Uch Sharif on Saturday.

PPP has filed a written complaint, which says that Mr Bhutto-Zardari’s cavalcade was proceeding to the shrine, but police blocked the road and did not allow him to visit the shrine.

It brings the purported neutrality of the provincial caretaker government, in this case the Punjab government, into clear doubt,” the letter said.
