FAISALABAD, April 28: The Civil Lines police and agriculture university administration have yet to find any clue to the MSc physics student, who went missing 11 days ago. Muhammad Riaz, a younger brother of the missing Fayyaz Ahmad, told Dawn on Thursday that his brother was residing in the Room 3-D of the university hostel’s Jinnah Hall from where he was kidnapped by some people on April 17. However, he alleged that the university administration had not taken any serious notice of the incident.

He said he met the hall warden, superintendent of hostels, the student affairs director and other functionaries of the university, but they remained indifferent to the tragic incident.

Thereafter, he said, a written application was moved on April 25, which was forwarded by the Civil Lines police SHO’s deputy registrar Dr Shahid Afzal Gill to take an appropriate action.

Even then, he pleaded, the police refused to register any case or investigate the episode claiming that the hostel management was responsible for it and they (the police) could do nothing more than putting it down in the daily register.

Riaz, who is also a student of MSc (honours) in soil sciences and resides in Room 4-C of the same university’s Sir Syed Hall, said with tearful eyes that he belonged to a working class family and had three brothers and a sister. His father is a carpenter in Mian Channu, Khanewal district, while his elder brother, Muhammad Ilyas, assists his father.

“As our father could not afford the expenses of our education, we (Riaz and Fayyaz) used to teach children and earn at least Rs15,000 a month. He said the amount was enough to bear the expenses of our university fees, boarding and other charges, besides contributing Rs5,000 to the family in Mian Channu.

“I am running from pillar to post for the last 11 days to seek help from the university administration, but none of the officials is making any sincere effort in tracing my brother,” he said.

Meanwhile, several boarders of the UAF have also expressed concern over the incident and the apathy of the officials, who were responsible for providing protection to the students.
