MIRPURKHAS, Sept 26: Old Mirpur union council nazim Ghulam Mohammad Shah has called on the Sindh police chief to take note of the alleged negligence of the Mirpurkhas police.
He said that the Mirpurkhas police had so far neither neither suspended nor arrested the police officials accused of torturing a man to death even after 24 hours of the registration of a murder case against them.
The Old Mirpur police on the orders of the Sindh High Court, Hyderabad circuit bench, registered the murder case against the police officials on Thursday.
Mr Shah told journalists that Ahmed Khan Dal had died due to police torture but doctors at the Mirpurkhas Civil Hospital did not submit a correct report on the post-mortem examination and stated that he died of cardiac arrest.
He said that on an application filed by the deceased’s heir the Sindh High Court’s Hyderabad bench ordered registration of a murder case.
He alleged that the police officials involved in this murder were the SHO town police station, Mohammed Ayoub Dars, ASI town police station Roshan Leghari, Constables Qasim Narejo, Ghulam Haider Narejo, Nawaz Narejo and Ali Khan Narejo.
He claimed that when he asked the DIG Mirpurkhas as to why no action had been taken against the culprits, the DIG said that the FIR lodged against the policemen was false.
He alleged that the DIG and DPO Mirpurkhas were supporting the accused police officials who were still performing their duties as usual.
