KARACHI, July 3: A division bench of the Sindh High Court, on Wednesday, directed the government to place on record the material for detention of the Fattanis on or before July 11.
The direction was given when the petition of Najma Mehmood, wife of Mehmood Fattani, challenging the detention of her husband and three others, came up before Justice Sabihuddin Ahmed and Justice Zia Pervez.
The petitioner, through her counsel, Khwaja Naveed, informed the court that the authorities had provided the detention order of the four persons from whose family farm land decomposed pieces of a human body, suspected to be that of American journalist, Daniel Pearl, were recovered.
It was her case that she and the detainees are entitled to know the grounds and place of their detention, and the material against them in the hands of the detaining authority.
