Swat, Pakistan: A religious party's workers and supporters recently took to the streets of Swat city of Pakistan over the delay in the arrest of the killers of a cleric, Sheikh Abdul Hamid.

The protest was organised by the youth force of Central Jamiat Ahle Hadith, Swat chapter, with the protesters holding banners and placards and demanding immediate arrest of the killers, The Dawn reported.

The demonstrators said the episode reflected on the poor law and order situation prevailing in the province.

The demonstrators vowed to continue their protest till the culprits were arrested and brought to justice.

Sheikh Hamid and his brother, Sheikh Mohammad, were critically injured when two motorcyclists opened fire on them in Qazi Kallay area in the limits of Faqirabad police station of Peshawar on the night of last Sunday (Jan 16), reports The Dawn.

Sheikh Hamid later died in hospital.
