TOBA TEK SINGH: A man was arrested on Friday by police allegedly after he scuffled with traffic wardens who lifted his car over wrong parking, while his daughter was still inside the vehicle, here on Jhang Road.

As per eyewitnesses, one Nasir Sarwar parked his car along Jhang Road and went to a nearby shop to buy something, while his young daughter was in the car.

Meanwhile, a traffic police fork lifter arriving there lifted the car, with the girl inside it, over wrong parking.

The owner got panicked on seeing his car lifted by the traffic police, with his daughter inside it, and requested the wardens to let the girl leave the car.

However, as the wardens turned a deafear tohis pleas, he exchanged words with them, ensuing a scuffle.

The wardens called the police and got Sarwar arrested for `creating hurdle in official work`.

Sarwar told reporters from the city police station lock-up that he had been arrested `without any justification`.

He argued that traffic police could not lift a car with an occupant, and appealed to Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz to take notice of the `highhandedness` of the officials.

On the other hand, a traffic police official claimed that the accused had parked the car in a `no-parking area` and when he was issued a ticket, he `attacked wardens and tore the uniform of lifter driver`.
