KARACHI: The Sindh High Court on Wednesday rejected a report submitted by the police and the joint investigation team on missing persons and directed them to trace the missoing persons at all costs.
The court was hearing a case filed by relatives of six persons who have gone missing without any clue with the police and other law enforcement agencies expressing ignorance about their whereabouts.
On a previous hearing, the court had directed the police and the JIT to submit a report.
Today when Justice Niamat Ullah Pulpheto took up the case, the report was submitted to him by the police and the JIT. However, the judge rejected it and reprimanded the police and the JIT terming it a wastage of time.
The court also rejected a report filed by the federal interior ministry which stated that the missing persons were not in custody of any intelligence agency under the federal government.
The judge ordered the authorities concerned to probe the matter from all angles and produce the missing poo persons otherwise action would be ordered against the investigating officers.
The court said that if the JIT has failed to trace the missing persons even after holding 26 meetings it was wastage of time and of no value.
The court then adjourned the hearing till December 6 with the direction to trace the missing persons by then.
