The Sindh government has restored the original medical board for the exhumation of Mir Raza Ali's body, which was originally scheduled for Friday but was postponed due to objections from the family. The exhumation, which was set to take place in Tariq Road graveyard, was initially planned for Friday morning but was delayed after Mir Raza Ali's family objected to the reconstitution of the medical board and the inclusion of members from outside the Karachi division.
The original board consisted of eight members, with Police Surgeon Dr Summaiya Syed serving as the convener. However, the board was reconstituted Friday morning, with Dr Syed remaining the convener but with members replaced by Prof Dr Zakiuddin from Dow University of Health Sciences, Prof Dr Kazi Akbar and Prof Dr Abid Hussain Chang from Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences, and Hyderabad Police Surgeon Dr Waseem Khan.
