Karachi(May 29, 2018): The father of Naqeebullah Mehsud, who was killed in a fake encounter by then SSP Rao Anwar, has moved the Sindh High Court against the declaration of suspended SSP Rao Anwar’s house as a sub-jail.
Speaking to the media outside the Sindh High Court on Tuesday, Saif-ur-Rehman, the leader of Grand Jirga constituted to pursue Naqeebullah’s murder case, said they have challenged the Sindh government’s move to make Anwar’s house a sub-jail.
The Sindh government is trying to save Anwar, he added.
Naqeebullah’s father Khan Muhammad told the media that they have neither forgotten their son nor would they ever compromise on his murder.“If Rao Anwar is an influential person then I am also a hard worker,” the father said.
Background Of The Case:
On January 18, Anwar had declared Naqeebullah a terrorist after news of the fake encounter aired on television.
A case of the incident was filed on January 19, while Anwar was suspended from duty the next day.
The Supreme Court had ordered Anwar to appear on January 27, but the suspended SSP remained on the run for at least two months.Cases have been filed against 24 accused in the murder case of Naqeebullah. Out of the count, 11 have been arrested while 13 others are absconding.
A Joint Investigation Team (JIT) formed under the directives of the Supreme Court found the suspended Malir SSP responsible for the killing of Mehsud and three others in an alleged encounter in Karachi.
The use of geo-fencing technology has established Anwar’s presence at the time of the incident.He was also present with Naqeebullah when the youth was arrested, and where he was kept in captivity, sources close to the JIT have revealed.
