Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pakistan

Respected sir,

two people died in firing. Offenders were our neighbours.

We give them food, clothes for humanity as they were poor before incident.

Before incident she used our home phone while saying there mobile is out of credit and made 6/7 calls to her daughter already in jail. Later incident happen,police found that she use our number.we explain facts to the investigation officer and made him satisfied.

Police install recording tape on our phones. Police made arrest all except one who is stil wanted.Two days before we received call from her jailed daughter.we inform police about that number.Police told us leave tape recording as it is and offender may cal u again and we can trace.

My questions are:

1: Are we liable any offence?

2 :What could be worse?

3: Can police arrest us at any stage?

4: Can police use us as an evidence due to calls?

5: how long we have to face recording phone as we do not feel comfortable and under pressure?

6: how we can make request to remove recording?

7:after removing tape can we shut down old number for our safety?

Your early response appreciated. Regards

Saeed
