Meanwhile family members of a missing man, Naushad Siapad, alleged that he disappeared after allegedly being arrested by the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) in Kharan on Nov 29.

The mother, sister and few other female family members of Mr Siapad were addressing a press conference at their residence in Jozhan area of Kharan district.

They said Naushad Siapad complained to his family that CTD was chasing him a day earlier. They alleged that Naushad was tortured during his abduction and so far the family did not know about his whereabouts.

“He was the sole breadwinner of our family. He worked with a motorbike mechanic in Kharan. The whole family is suffering mental and financial miseries due to his disappearance.” Mr Siapad’s mother appealed to the prime minister, army chief and chief justice of Pakistan to play their role for recovery of her son.
