Missing persons tribunal hearing ends
Former Supreme Court judge Justice (retd) Kamal Mansoor Alam headed a tribunal that heard the cases of eight people, including Shafi Muhammad Brohi’s case who disappeared from Hyderabad in 2003, Saiful Khan Marri who vanished from Surjani Town in 2008, Aslam Khan and Ahmed Shujauddin who disappeared from Boat Basin in March this year and three residents of Swat, Abdul Hannan, Ahsan Ali and Khalid Khan who went missing from PIB colony in October 2009.
The case regarding the disappearance of Jamaat-e-Islami Gwadar Amir Syed Baloch from Gulshan-e-Iqbal in April this year was also heard.
After the hearing, Sindh government’s representative, additional home secretary Collin Kamran Dost said that the case regarding the disappearance of two people from Boat Basin, namely Nazakat Hussain and Ahmed Shujauddin, will not be heard by the tribunal because it is suspected that their disappearance is related to a murder.
The families of Saifur Rehman and Saleem Shahzad informed the tribunal that since the men had returned home, they wished to take back the case, officials revealed, who added that the tribunal will submit its report to the Supreme Court within this month after a conference that will take place in Islamabad.
