ISLAMABAD Five law enforcement officers have died since a Pakistan Rangers member who was hurt during the November 26 Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) demonstration passed away on Thursday.
Lance Naik Muhammad Tanveer, 37, lived in the Narowal district of Punjab. According to an official statement, he sustained injuries during the protests and remains in a coma.
Tanveer left behind his wife, two kids, and three daughters after serving for 17 years in the military.
The three-day demonstrations by the previous ruling party to secure the release of Imran Khan were immediately called off when violent altercations broke out between the demonstrators and the police, resulting in the deaths of several police officers and at least four Rangers members.
