SHC seeks details of detention camps in country

The Sindh High Court (SHC) has given the Federal Defence Ministry and the Sindh Home Department three weeks to furnish a comprehensive report on all detention camps in the country.

A two-judge bench, headed by Justice Naimatullah Phulpoto, passed the order while hearing petitions related to the recovery of missing persons on Thursday.

One of the petitioners stated before the bench that her husband, Tahir Rehan, has been missing since 2015. “Police have not initiated any investigation,” she said.

Contrary to the public prosecutor’s claim of providing Rs500,000 as compensation, the petitioner insisted she has not received any such compensation.
