Govt promises judicial inquiry in Intizar murder case

KARACHI: Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has decided to conduct a judicial inquiry into the murder of Intizar Ahmed, a youth who was shot dead by personnel of Anti-Car Lifting Cell (ACLC) of the Karachi police last Saturday.

The CM decided to conduct a judicial inquiry after he received a letter from the victim's father, Ishtiaq Ahmed, requesting him to conduct a judicial inquiry into the murder of his son while he was driving on Khayaban-e-Ittehad.

Shah spoke to the father via telephone and assured him that he would order a judicial inquiry into the incident. The CM informed Ishtiaq that he would finalise all formalities for the judicial inquiry in a day. Shah told the father that he would redress all his reservations regarding investigations into the murder of his son.



The CM directed the chief secretary to initiate necessary process for the judicial inquiry. Later, the government issued a letter to the Sindh High Court (SHC) registrar requesting the SHC chief justice to appoint a sitting SHC judge to conduct a judicial inquiry into the killing of Intizar.
