Sindh govt to seek judicial commission to review Mir Raza murder probe; family to move SHC against decision
The Sindh government said on Sunday it would be asking the chief justice of the provincial high court to establish a judicial commission to determine whether the investigation in the Mir Raza Ali murder case was being conducted impartially and in accordance with the law. But, soon after the announcement, the counsel for Ali’s family raised objections and said they would approach the Sindh High…
The Sindh government announced on Sunday that they will request the Chief Justice of the Sindh High Court to establish a judicial commission to review the investigation into the Mir Raza Ali murder case. The government stated that the commission will determine if the investigation was impartial and in accordance with the law, and will identify any negligence or wrongdoing by police officers or other officials.
The family of Ali, however, has objected to the decision and plans to move the Sindh High Court on Monday to form a joint investigation team (JIT) and oppose the judicial commission. They argue that the police have not submitted their investigation report yet, and question why the government is making this decision without the full information.
The family also expressed their distrust in the ongoing proceedings and stated that they want more law enforcement and intelligence agencies to be involved in the investigation.
