Following an attack at the Gulistan-e-Johar police station by “80 scrap dealers” that left two of its workers injured, police on Friday detained six suspects.

Eighty individuals linked to the scrap business carried out the attack, according to the police and the news. They said that stone-pelting and other forms of torture had injured a police constable and an assistant sub-inspector.
