      <title>Liaquat Mehsud granted pre-arrest bail in dumper accident</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330443006/liaquat-mehsud-granted-pre-arrest-bail-in-dumper-accident</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A district and sessions court in Karachi South has approved the pre-arrest bail of Liaquat Mehsud, chairman of the Dumper Association, in connection with the death of a citizen who was hit by a dumper truck in the Garden area.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to court sources, Mehsud has been directed to submit surety bonds worth Rs50,000 and appear before investigators as part of the ongoing inquiry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The incident occurred a day earlier on Karachi’s Nishtar Road, where a dumper truck fatally struck a young man, Shahzaib, and injured his wife.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following the accident, angry citizens set the dumper on fire. The driver, who had fled the scene, was later arrested by police.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shortly after the incident, Dumper Association chairman Liaquat Mehsud arrived at the scene accompanied by his armed guard.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Eyewitnesses said his presence triggered strong public outrage, with citizens demanding justice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the confrontation, Mehsud’s guard opened fire and fled, causing panic in the area.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In response, angry protesters later torched another dumper in the Ramswami area of Garden.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Later, Mehsud claimed that he had been attacked and announced plans to block the National Highway in protest.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori took serious notice of the incident, stating that brandishing firearms or threatening citizens in public was unacceptable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Police said the search for the guard involved in the firing is underway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two FIRs have been registered over the incident, including one against Liaquat Mehsud himself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first FIR was lodged by the father of the deceased, while the second was filed by social activist Abdul Qadir Memon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the FIRs, Liaquat Mehsud issued threats of dire consequences at the scene, while his armed guards opened fire on citizens, assaulting men, women, and children.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The complaint maintained that Mehsud’s convoy used police-style sirens to intimidate the public.&lt;/p&gt;
