Sindh: Pakistan's Sindh High Court on Friday directed the  provincial home secretary to inform it under what scheme of law the special commandos of police were assigned to escort the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party leaders under the title of very important persons (VIPs), media reports said on Sunday.

Leader of the Opposition in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh petitioned the SHC seeking direction for the provincial authorities and police to provide him proper security as he was reportedly under threat, reports Dawn News.

At the outset of the hearing, a police officer filed a compliance report on behalf of the Sindh police chief in the light of last court order specifying deployment of special commandos, the newspaper reported.

A two-judge bench headed by Justice Naimatullah Phulpoto noted that as per report of IGP, four well-trained policemen had been provided to the petitioner.
