Fast Food Sellers Got Arrested After Refusing To Give Free Food To Policemen
Some Pakistani police officers are facing suspension after allegedly arresting 19 employees of a fast food restaurant in Lahore for refusing to give them free snack meals.
According to local reports, staff at a Johnny & Jugnu fast food restaurant in Lahore, Pakistan, were rounded up and arrested at around 8pm on Saturday and held in custody overnight for ‘having the audacity’ to refuse a group of policemen free burgers last week.
Employees weren’t even allowed to close down the kitchen, allegedly leaving the fryers running and customers waiting in line for their orders.
In an official statement, The fast food restaurant’s representatives gave details about the incident, explaining that it had been caused by staff’s refusal to give policemen free burgers.
“This is not the first time something like this has happened… at our restaurant. “Upon rejecting their request for free burgers, which has become a common practice for them, the police officers threatened our managers and left, only to return the next day to further harass and pressure our teams… with baseless arguments.
11th of June 2021, some police officers came to our… outlet and took our manager into custody, without giving any reason whatsoever.
Then they emptied out our entire branch, taking all of our kitchen crew, including the rest of the managers,” Johnny & Jugnu officials wrote on Facebook.
