Culprits statement
When Yousaf Jan Utmanzai asked from the culprits regarding their crime they accepted it and said they are ashamed of what they have done. The one by the name of Shahid is the mastermind and according to the police he was arrested a few years before for committing such crime and spent 20 days in jail but was then set free by the court. The second partner was the facilitator and is a rickshaw driver it was his first time being in such a scenario but unluckily he was arrested.
These culprits stole the money form the fragile individuals of our society who would receive money from the Benazir income support program, a charity program started by the PPP for the finically weak individuals of Pakistan.
