RAWALPINDI: Nearly 80 motorcyclists launched an attack at the Rawalpindi’s traffic police’s Chandni Chowk check post after their fellow bikers were arrested on charges of one-wheeling on Friday.
The motorcyclists took traffic wardens hostage and attempted to set a government-owned car on fire.
An operation against one-wheeling is underway, under which at least seven suspects were arrested in Rawalpindi.
Warden officer Suhail Shehzad was seriously injured after attackers opened fire on him, a spokesperson for the traffic police said.
“The crackdown against one-wheeling will continue throughout Ramazan,” Wajid Sasti said. “24 FIRs have been registered against one-wheelers to date, and a total of 26 suspects have been arrested.”
