Islamabad Police have registered a case on the complaint of a Bangladeshi diplomat who said he has received a threatening letter and was being followed by unidentified people.
According to the police, the diplomat, Mohammad Ali Khalid, had lodged a complaint with the DIG of Islamabad and a case was registered on Thursday under Section 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Pakistan Penal Code.
In his complaint, Khalid said that he holds a key position at the Embassy of Bangladesh in Islamabad and has noticed over the past few days that some unknown individuals have been following him and monitoring his movement.
These individuals also took Khalid’s pictures and then the embassy received a threatening letter addressed to him at the embassy. This created an environment of fear and anxiety not only for him but also for the embassy staff.
A police officer quoted the diplomat as saying, “All these activities will affect the cordial relations between the two countries.” He urged the authorities to register a case, identify the culprits and ensure they are punished according to the law.
