The Sindh High Court has ordered police investigators to obtain and submit reports from detention centres across the country regarding the request for the recovery of missing citizens.
The order was issued during a hearing before a two-member bench headed by Justice Naimatullah Phulpoto, in response to a petition seeking the recovery of citizen Shamshad Ali.
Despite the efforts of several Joint Investigation Teams (JITs) and Task Force meetings, Shamshad Ali remains missing. The court expressed its dissatisfaction with the traditional police investigation methods.
The court inquired as to what the police were doing, to which the investigating officer responded that 30 JITs and 15 task force meetings had been held, but Shamshad Ali's whereabouts could not be determined.
