HARIPUR: A video of an alleged incident involving Haripur’s Additional Assistant Commissioner, Shahid Khattak, has gone viral, sparking public outrage. In the video, Khattak is seen reportedly humiliating kite sellers during a crackdown on illegal kite sales. The footage shows Khattak forcing the President of the Kite Association to sign documents while placing them on the man’s back, which has been widely criticized as a degrading and unacceptable act.
This incident has prompted calls for action from local citizens, who are demanding that the Deputy Commissioner of Haripur take strict measures against Khattak. The public’s response has been swift and condemning, with many calling for accountability.
This controversy follows another incident in Sadiqabad, Rahim Yar Khan, where government officials were caught on camera slashing tires of vehicles parked along the roadside. Locals claim that the tire-slashing operation was carried out under the orders of an Assistant Commissioner, further fueling concerns about the behavior of some government officials.
The growing public outcry highlights widespread frustration over what many see as abusive conduct by individuals in positions of authority and a call for greater accountability in local governance.
