Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has granted the judicial commission investigating the death of Mir Raza Ali an extension until October 15, Aaj News reported on Monday. The commission, currently led by Sindh High Court Justice Omar Sial, had its one-month term expire on September 27. The extension will require formal approval from the Sindh Cabinet.
The commission has raised concerns over evidence handling, investigation performance, and discrepancies in the post-mortem examination. They have also examined the constitution and functioning of medical boards, summoning health officials to address these issues. The commission adjourned proceedings until October 2 to complete witness statements and finalize the report.
Mir Raza Ali went missing on July 28, 2026, and his body was found the next day. Initial reports suggested suicide, but his family insisted he was murdered, leading to a subsequent murder charge. The judicial commission has ruled out suicide, based on a second post-mortem revealing signs of torture, multiple fractures, and a gunshot wound from the rear.
