KARACHI: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Tuesday acquitted alleged Lyari gangster Uzair Baloch and Shaikh Sher Mohammad Sheroo in a 2013 case pertaining to kidnapping and murder of two Rangers personnel.
The court announced the reserved verdict today, acquitting them for lack of evidence.
A defence lawyer said that the prosecution failed to place on record concrete evidence to substantiate the kidnap and murder charges against Uzair Baloch and Sher Mohammad.
According to the police, the suspects had kidnapped and murdered two Rangers personnel – Havaldar Muneer Ahmed and Havaldar Ejaz Ahmed – within the jurisdiction of the Pak Colony police station in 2013.
Their bodies were found in the Mewashah graveyard on March 7, 2013, the police said.
