ISLAMABAD: The clinical investigation report of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) officer Kamran Faisal’s death stated that he was a victim of depression and committed suicide, Express News reported on Sunday.

The report said that Faisal snapped his neck by hanging himself and his eyes were half-open at the time of his death. There were no torture marks on his body and nothing poisonous was found in his stomach either, the report added.

It further revealed that Faisal’s post mortem took place 16 hours after his death.

Faisal’s father Abdul Hameed rejected the report and said that he will not accept any report which terms his death a suicide. He termed the report “bogus”.

Faisal was found hanging from the ceiling fan in his room at a government hostel in Islamabad, three days after the Supreme Court ordered the prime minister’s arrest in the Rental Power Projects (RPPs) case. He was part of the team investigating the case.
