CJP urged to help recover ‘missing’ man

HYDERABAD, May 24: A man appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan on Thursday to help recover his son who, he believed, was picked up by personnel of law enforcement agencies on May 19.

Aslam Shoro, a resident of Bholari in Jamshoro district said at a news conference at the press club that 15-year-old Qurban was taken away by five men in a white coloured car when he was at a marriage ceremony in Nago Lane Kotri.

When a passer-by who happened to be a policeman tried to stop them, they shot him in the leg and left him bleeding, he said.

According to eyewitnesses, he said, the occupants of the car appeared to be personnel of some law enforcement agency. He went to Kotri police station and lodged a complaint but they gave him evasive replies.

He said that his son was a daily-wage labourer and was not associated with any nationalist organisation. He appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan to take notice of his son’s disappearance and order his recovery.
