KARACHI: A local court here on Saturday directed the investigation officer of a case pertaining to the murder of 19-year-old Intizar Ahmed to submit police record of the case.
The judge directed the IO to submit the police file of the case until February 15.
When asked about the police record, the IO told the judge that a joint investigation team was constituted afresh to probe the murder case. He, therefore, sought time to submit the record.
Meanwhile, the court extended the bail granted to accused Tariq Rahim in the case till next hearing.
Intizar Ahmed was shot dead under mysterious circumstances by armed ACLC personnel when he didn’t stop his car after being signaled by them in Khayaban-i-Bukhari of Karachi’s Defence Housing Authority (DHA) on January 13.
Eight Anti-Car Lifting Cell (ACLC) officials have been arrested and sent to jail on judicial remand in the case while another accused is out on bail.
Lately, a joint investigation team (JIT), formed under supervision of CTD Intelligence SSP Pervaiz Chandio to probe the case, recorded the statement of the slain student’s father and a girl who was with the deceased at the time of the incident.
Ishtiaq Ahmed, SSP Muqaddas Haider and a witness, Madiha Kiyani, appeared before the JIT to record their statements.
