Bari Imam blast: body of prime suspect buried
ISLAMABAD, July 13: The local police on Wednesday buried the unclaimed body of the prime suspect in the May 27 Bari Imam shrine blast in which 20 people had lost their life. The administration of the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) had written a letter to the Secretariat police station SHO, Jamil Hashmi, requesting him to collect the body from Pims mortuary. The Pims administration told the SHO that the body was lying in the mortuary since May 27 and occupying the space unnecessarily.
Mr Hashmi told Dawn that the Secretariat police had collected the body and buried it in trust at the CDA graveyard in H-8.
The SHO said earlier the body was not buried as the police were waiting for the family of the deceased, but unfortunately no one claimed the body.
The police took snaps and made video of the suspect for investigation and legal process, he added.
When asked about his identification, the SHO said: “It is a difficult question to answer.”
