Death of a student at LUMS...Again...

It seems that LUMS (the Lahore University of Management Sciences), one of the top universities in Pakistan, has been suffering a little bad publicity lately. Only last year, a student tragically took his own life. And today early in the morning, 3 students went out of the gates and were smashed into by a drunk driver in a Pajero. One student has been pronounced dead, another has suffered major injuries, while the third one is relatively OK. As usual, the hospital had to deny medical aid to the critically injured student initially as it was a "police case". The teachers and students at LUMS have protested, and rightly so, and classes were cancelled for the day at LUMS.
I ask you to call the police chief Lahore, DIG Pervez Rathore and have your voices heard, for the police, as usual, seem determined not to deliver justice.
Call him at:
0301-4093189
042-9202976
P.S. Please spread this around. Remember every phone call counts!
