Hafizabad, Pakistan (ROD) June 09th: The “Rays of Development (ROD) Organization”, through credible sources obtained information that an influential and cussed landlord with the help of his hoodlums viciously tortured a farmer then chained him with his dogs and forced him to eat food with the dogs over a monetary issue at village called: Nawan Shehr within the jurisdictions of district (administrative division) Hafizabad in Pakistan’s Punjab province on Tuesday June 08th.

Victimized farmer identified as Tasawar Khan had bought two (02) buffaloes from a landlord identified as Muhammad Yousaf of village Dahriwal and pledged to pay Pak Rs 120,000.oo (US $ 1438.04 approx) after some time, ROD learnt through first hand account of Tasawar Khan, that buffaloes were later found sick and died.

ROD was told that due this great loss poverty stricken, Tasawar Khan who is a small farmer failed to reimburse the promised sum on time and alleged that rich and obdurate landlord Muhammad Yousaf and his numerous unidentified goons abducted him and he (Khan)was taken to the farmhouse (in Punjabi language called ‘Dera’) of Muhammad Yousaf, Khan went on saying, and they allegedly tied him with iron chains and manhandled him.

Tasawar Khan also alleged that he was served food with dogs and compelled to eat the food with dogs of Muhammad Yousaf, at his farmhouse. Khan allegedly added that both dogs and he were tied to a tree at the farmhouse.

Muhammad Yousaf told ROD that Tasawar Khan was supposed to pay back the promised amount on time but his failure infuriated him he pressurized Tasawar Khan to pay back the buffaloes cost.

In the meantime Vanike Police Station learnt about the ordeal of Tasawar Khan and raided at the farmhouse of Muhammad Yousaf and found that Khan and dogs were jointly chained to a single tree and Tasawar Khan was being treated inhumanly.
