‘Torture cell’ run by SHO, constables unearthed in Lahore
[DAWN] A torture cell operated allegedly by the Gujjarpura station house officer (SHO) along with three constables to keep suspects in jug on the pretext of interrogation was unearthed in the historic provincial capital on Monday.

Two handcuffed and four other men were recovered from the cell established by the coppers at a local office of the forest department. The cell was unearthed by officials of the anti-corruption department, who were in the field for investigation of a case, an official told Dawn.

He said during their investigation, the anti-corruption officials heard cries, traced them to a building located right in the middle of a jungle and filmed whatever they saw. They found six locked men, including a bedridden man ‐ identified as Amjad ‐ at death's door due to apparently third-degree torture by the suspected coppers.

In the footage recorded on a mobile phone, Amjad is seen telling the officials that his backbone and hips were severely fractured and that he could not even move on the bed provided to him by the forest department employees on his repeated requests.
