The Sindh government has announced plans to establish a judicial commission to investigate the murder of 25-year-old businessman Mir Raza Ali, according to Home Minister Ziaul Hassan Lanjar. Ali's body was discovered in Karachi's Gulistan-i-Jauhar last month, following his disappearance on July 28. While his family maintains that he was kidnapped, tortured, and killed, police had previously investigated the case as a potential suicide.
However, additional findings from Ali's second postmortem report ruled out suicide, leading to a murder charge being added to the investigation. Lanjar, along with Karachi Mayor Murtaza Wahab, visited Ali's residence to meet his parents and assured them that justice would be served. A five-member team, led by Sindh Deputy IG (Crime and Investigation) Amir Farooqui, has been formed to conduct a thorough and impartial investigation into the case.
