ISLAMABAD: A judicial inquiry into the murder of an Islamabad youngster, Osama Satti, has pointed the blame on concerned SP and DSP in the case for showing negligence, besides also suggesting a trial against five ATS personnel under the anti-terrorism act, ARY NEWS reported.
Osama Satti was killed by Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) personnel after they claimed that the boy refused to stop his vehicle at a check-point following a robbery report on the wireless. The post mortem report later found that the boy was shot multiple times from the front.
The family of the victim has since demanded of the authorities to conduct a judicial inquiry into the matter owing to their distrust of the police.
