Mir Raza murder case: Minister says Sindh govt does not intend to 'impede' judicial commission's proceedings

On Thursday, Sindh Home Minister Ziaul Hassan Lanjar assured the judicial commission investigating the Mir Raza Ali murder case that the provincial government had no intention to "impede" the proceedings following a previous interruption by the Sindh advocate general (AG). The AG had objected to questions asked by the lawyer representing the victims' family during police surgeon Dr Summaiya Syed's testimony.

Lanjar apologized for the misunderstanding and assured the family would receive justice, stating that whoever is found involved in the case would be punished. The commission's head, Justice Omar Sial, welcomed Lanjar's clarification and emphasized the necessity of the commission's proceedings.
