Nawaz Sharif urges PML-N leaders to ignore Naqvi&#…

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif has reportedly directed party leaders to avoid reacting to recent remarks made by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, stressing that national unity and institutional harmony are essential in the current political and security environment.

According to sources, Nawaz Sharif described coordination between the federal government and state institutions as a critical national requirement at a time when Pakistan is facing significant economic, political, and security challenges.

He reportedly advised party leaders to exercise restraint and refrain from making statements that could create the impression of differences between the government of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir.

The development comes after Mohsin Naqvi’s recent remarks regarding the country’s political system reportedly prompted concerns within sections of the PML-N leadership. Senior party members are said to have conveyed their reservations to Nawaz Sharif during internal consultations.

Sources said Nawaz Sharif instructed party leaders to ignore the statement and avoid escalating the matter publicly. He emphasised that the country’s national interest requires maintaining close cooperation and mutual understanding among all state institutions.

According to the sources, the PML-N president believes that unnecessary public controversy over individual statements could undermine confidence at a time when the country is confronting multiple internal and external challenges.

Nawaz Sharif reportedly maintained that preserving institutional harmony is essential for political stability, effective governance, and addressing the country’s economic and security priorities.

He also urged party leaders to remain focused on governance and public service rather than engaging in political disputes that could create perceptions of divisions within the state structure.

    Four held after Haripur child found dead in abando…

    HARIPUR: Police have arrested four suspects in connection with the alleged abduction, sexual assault and murder of a five-year-old girl whose body was recovered from a deserted well in Haripur after an extensive search operation. Haripur District Police Officer Shafiullah Gandapur said the child was reported missing by her father on August 10. Police registered a case under relevant provisions of the Pakistan Penal Code and launched a search operation to trace her. A special investigation team was subsequently formed, comprising senior police officers, investigators and female police officials. A separate technical team was assigned to examine digital evidence, including CCTV footage, call records and geofencing data. Police reviewed footage from around 200 cameras and examined the records of 20 suspected telephone numbers. Investigators said footage from 12 cameras proved particularly significant in reconstructing the child’s movements after she left home and identifying individuals allegedly travelling in the area on foot and on a motorcycle. Three suspects were initially arrested, and police also recovered a motorcycle allegedly used in the incident. According to police, one suspect recorded a statement before a court admitting his involvement in the alleged abduction and sexual assault. The other suspects were produced before the court for further legal proceedings. Police later arrested a fourth suspect. Information obtained during the investigation led officers to a deep, dry and overgrown well located on a vacant plot near Link Road on University Road, close to a warehouse. A search team, assisted by Rescue 1122 personnel, recovered the child’s body from the well. The recovery operation was monitored by the DPO and senior members of the investigation team. The body was shifted to the Rescue 1122 Trauma Centre in Haripur, where a post-mortem examination was conducted. Doctors collected X-rays and samples for DNA and other forensic examinations. The results are awaited. The investigation has faced additional difficulties because some suspects are reportedly underage and did not possess identity documents. Police said they therefore examined telephone records linked to their family members and other numbers considered relevant to the case. The search for the missing child involved hundreds of personnel. More than 400 police officials, along with staff from the Tehsil Municipal Administration and Water and Sanitation Agency, participated in searches covering drains, sewerage lines, vegetation, vacant plots and deserted locations around the University of Haripur, Pathan Colony and nearby areas. Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Inspector General of Police Zulfiqar Hameed took notice of the case, while Hazara DIG Nasir Mahmood Satti visited Haripur to review the investigation. The DPO briefed him on the evidence collected, CCTV findings and progress in identifying and arresting the suspects. The DIG also met the victim’s family and assured them that the investigation would be pursued according to law. Meanwhile, K-P Chief Minister Sohail Afridi condemned the alleged crime and ordered a comprehensive investigation. He directed authorities to ensure that every aspect of the case was examined and that those found responsible were dealt with strictly under the law. The chief minister expressed condolences to the child’s family and said crimes against children would not be tolerated. He assured the family that the provincial government would support them and that the suspects would face legal consequences if found guilty.

    KP eyes M-1 motorway BRT service to connect 4 majo…

    PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government is exploring a plan to extend its Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) network onto the M-1 Motorway, with the proposed service aimed at improving public transport links between Peshawar and several major cities. Officials from the provincial Transport Department said the proposed BRT service could connect passengers with Nowshera, Mardan, Swabi and Charsadda, potentially providing a faster and more convenient travel option for thousands of daily commuters. Under the initial proposal, buses would pick up and drop off passengers at designated toll plazas along the motorway. The exact locations and number of stops, however, have yet to be determined. Officials said a detailed feasibility study would establish where stations should be developed and assess the operational requirements of the proposed service. If approved and implemented, the initiative could strengthen regional connectivity and provide commuters with an expanded public transport option across key areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

    Joe Marler defends Prince Harry after backlash ove…

    Former rugby star Joe Marler has spoken out about the criticism surrounding Prince Harry’s recent podcast appearance, revealing that he was initially nervous about interviewing the Duke of Sussex because of the divided public opinion surrounding him. Prince Harry appeared on the Joe Marler Will See You Now podcast last month during a visit to the UK. His relaxed and cheerful appearance attracted attention, with some observers suggesting that viewers were seeing a more familiar side of the Duke. The interview also sparked criticism over certain moments, including Harry reportedly introducing himself as the “Prince of England.” Questions were also raised about the protocols surrounding his and Meghan Markle’s public appearances. Speaking to The Mirror, Marler said he had expected the interview to attract backlash but explained that meeting Harry in person quickly changed his perspective. He said he was already supportive of the Duke but became even more convinced after seeing how casually Harry interacted with the podcast team. Marler recalled that Harry entered the room without any ceremony, greeted everyone warmly and hugged him and co-host Jake. According to the former rugby player, the atmosphere quickly became relaxed, making it feel like they were simply talking to an ordinary person. Marler said he was prepared for criticism over the interview but did not want the possibility of backlash to prevent them from being genuine during their conversation. His latest comments further underline his support for Harry despite the continued controversy surrounding the Duke. Moreover, Prince Harry is once again facing sharp criticism from royal commentators. The backlash follows his defeat in a High Court privacy case against Associated Newspapers on July 7. Royal broadcaster Neil Sean weighed in on the mounting pressure surrounding the Duke of Sussex. He suggested much of the current turmoil is self-inflicted, pointing out that Harry has effectively made his struggles public for the world to see. Sean went further, describing Harry as someone visibly on edge right now. He questioned whether the prince’s current mindset appeared healthy given everything unfolding around him. According to Sean, the court defeat has left Harry navigating a genuinely difficult situation largely on his own. He suggested the fallout from the case has affected Harry far more deeply than he’d likely admit publicly. Sean noted that this marks unfamiliar territory for Harry, who has typically had support systems, like a private secretary, to help manage this kind of crisis. He said the experience of realising not everything he touches turns out successfully has clearly been difficult for him to process. Beyond the reputational damage, financial concerns are also mounting. Commentator Mark Dolan did not hold back, describing the situation as a full-blown financial disaster for the prince. Dolan estimated Harry could be facing costs anywhere between $10 million and $20 million as a result of the case. He said even a conservative estimate of $10 million would essentially wipe out all the money Harry earned from his memoir, “Spare.” Dolan raised pointed questions about whether Harry actually has the funds to cover those costs. He also wondered how Meghan Markle might be reacting to the situation, and what Harry’s next move could realistically look like. According to Dolan, the scale of the financial fallout makes this a defining moment for Harry, describing it as an existential crisis for the prince. With both reputational and financial pressures mounting simultaneously, commentators suggest this latest setback could prove especially difficult for Harry to recover from.
