The Sindh High Court (SHC) has summoned the DIG Investigation and ordered the federal defence and interior secretaries, and others to submit a report in response to a plea filed for the recovery of two real brothers who have been missing since 2014.
Appearing before a twojudge bench, headed by Justice Naimatullah Phulpoto, on Saturday, the petitioner stated, "My two sons, Maaz and Talha, have been missing since 2014. Now I'm sick of visiting the courts for their recovery." The investigating officer (IO) informed the bench that 12 meetings of the provincial task force and 31 JITs have been conducted on the issue of the missing brothers.
"What purpose do these meetings serve if they cannot recover the missing brothers," the bench shot back before reprimanding the IO for his failure to recover the missing men. "The boys have been missing for 10 years," the court remarked. "At your current speed, it will take you another 25 years to probe the matter," an angry Justice Phulpoto remarked. "You should be sensitive to the suffering of others and find the missing men." The court ordered the DIG Investigation to appear in person while directing the defence and interior secretaries and others to submit the report. The court also sought a progress report on April 12.
