KARACHI:


The Sindh High Court has sought comments from the Sindh home secretary, the director-general of Rangers and the Intelligence Bureau on a petition about a missing man.



Justices Munib Akhtar and Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui also directed the deputy attorney general to file their statements while putting off the hearing to January 16, 2013. Saeedur Rehman, the petitioner, submitted that his brother, Noor Alam, had gone missing on November 28 after unidentified men abducted him.

Alam was driving a water tanker when he was stopped by some people who started fighting with him and took him away. The family went to the police station and the Crime Investigation Department, but they refused to reveal his whereabouts, he claimed. Rehman appealed to the judges to direct the respondents to bring his brother to the court.
