However, Fayyaz ul Hasan Chohan, provincial information minister intervened and resolved the matter.

The video clip of the unfortunate event is being circulated on social media today. Some say it occurred as the local authorities were initially not allowing the burial of an artist at the society’s graveyard.

Meanwhile, some say that the graves in the cemetery are made in a special order and the deceased’s relatives wanted to build a sepulchral mausoleum tomb, which the cemetery administration objected to.

Later, the matter was resolved with the intervention of the provincial minister.
