HYDERABAD, Feb 27: The Sindh minister for Auqaf, Zakat, Ushr and minority affairs, Dr Irfan Gul Magsi, on Thursday submitted the report of an inquiry into an incident involving a girl student of the Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences to Sindh Chief Minister Sardar Ali Mohammad Mahar.

The minister recorded statements of Amir Raza Memon, his father Bashir Memon, first year MBBS student Kavita, her father, Dr Rewchand and students affairs director Ali Gohar Shah.

In the course of the inquiry both the boy and the girl categorically denied that the incident had taken place outside the washroom. An official told this correspondent that the minister had submitted that there was no independent or direct evidence to establish something concrete as to what happened and that details of the incident seemed to have been exaggerated by different quarters.

The girl told the minister that Amir Raza Memon had grabbed her arm which she freed and went upstairs. She said it happened while she was returning from the canteen with her girl friend.

She, however, sought action against the boy for seizing her arm that earned her a bad name. The official said the Sindh chief minister would forward the report to the vice-chancellor for necessary action.
