The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Thursday sought a progress report from the Sindh Home Department, provincial Police Chief, Rangers Director General and several others by March 6 over a petition pertaining to the recovery of over 60 missing persons. A hearing was held on the petition over the recovery of 60 missing persons under Justice Naimatullah and Justice KK Agha. The court remarked that the provincial task force and the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) were not delivering the desired results. The court was also irked over the police reports presented during the hearing. The court also grilled the Sindh Interior Secretary and remarked that the provincial task force and JIT are not delivering the desired results. “Perhaps we should summon heads of the institutions and question them as well,” the court remarked. The court directed the Home Secretary to take personal interest in the case and ensure that steps are taken to recover the missing persons. Published in Daily Times, February 8th 2019.
