PHRO alleges minister, MP 'shielding the guilty'

CHANDIGARH: In the gruesome case in which two orphan children were brutally beaten up in Jalandhar, so much so that one of them died, the Punjab Human Rights Organisation (PHRO) alleged here, on Tuesday, that a local minister and a MP from the ruling party were trying to "shield the guilty".
PHRO now plans to seek compensation for the family. The grandmother and uncle of the two unfortunate brothers were brought here by the PHRO to air their concerns that the "investigations into the case are not derailed".
Brought to city by the PHRO, the family presented a picture of meekness and helplessness. Talking to mediapersons here, Shashi Sharma, PHRO activist, narrated the unfortunate story. Sharma also alleged that the police could conduct a probe in favour of their "guilty brethren".
