The Young Swindler in Peshawar

Months ago a gentleman from Chitral, Mr. Dinar was robbed by a boy in Qissa Khwani Bazar by giving him some powerful intoxication in dried mulberries which is a well known winter diet of Chitral. Some days ago another man from Drosh town of Chitral, Mr.Habib came across a young boy who introduced himself to be an employee from Balahistar fort who had come to the market to buy some item of utility for a Subedar. The boy brought Mr. Habib into conversation and gossip and then told him that he was also going to the same portion of the interior of Qissa Khwani Bazar where Mr. Habib was going. After some company between them the boy gave the man some baked beans to eat. Mr.Habib did his part to some extent and not eat the beans and put them into his pocket. After coming to a mosque where Mr.Habib was to stay he took out the beans from his pocket and first washed them with water and observed that there was some blue colour getting mixed with water. When he washed them he tried to have the taste of the beans and as soon as he got that he fell unconscious for two days and was admitted in Lady Readings Hospital before getting to senses.
It is most dangerous as the intoxication being giving to a human contains a limit and if it gets beyond limit may become dangerous for life. Now what is needed is to make the thing pointed out to all so that such dacoits be held up at once. People must be aware of such cheaters whether be male or female and not get fully at ease and at home with people just seeing just speaking Chitrali (K'howar) language.
