Haleem moves court with plea to form JIT on report of SSP

Leader of the Opposition in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh has moved the Sindh High Court (SHC) with a plea seeking order to form a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) on the report prepared by SSP Dr Muhammad Rizwan.

Haleem said that SSP Dr Rizwan through a report during his posting as SSP Jamshed Town, Karachi, had disclosed the connections and patronage of the drug traffickers by Sindh Minister Saeed Ghani and his relatives.

Haleem has also submitted the statement of Saeed Ghani's colleague Hamidullah Pathan as video evidence.

Later, while talking to media along with lawyers, Haleem said that he has no personal grudge with Saeed Ghani but his petition is only meant to protect the young generation of the province.

He said that the officials in the Sindh government, responsible for the protection of life and property of the people, are involved in these heinous activities and they are supporting the drug dealers.

He said that a few days ago, the Special Branch reported that there are thousands of drug peddlers who are being supported by the police.
