“We have given call for an indefinite peaceful protest,” All Pakistan Oil Tankers Owners Association (APOTOA) spokesman Israr Ahmed Shinwari said while talking to The Express Tribune. However, no formal contact has so far been established between the government officials and the oil transporters. Later, they would lead a procession to the headquarters of the oil marketing company in Clifton. “We have updated our trucks by expanding oil carrying capacity to 24,000 liters on the demand presented by the oil marketing company,” he said. APOTOA (or Oil Tankers Owners Grand Committee) has no capacity to hold the protest.
