ISLAMABAD:
The suo moto case of the murder of Orangi Pilot Project Director Parveen
Rehman was heard by the Supreme Court on Tuesday.
During proceedings the report of the judicial commission was presented before the court. The report sought an independent reinvestigation of the murder case.
The report prepared by the district and sessions judge in Karachi claimed that the initial investigation was manipulated. Human Rights Commission lawyer, Kamran Shekih agreed with the findings of the report and said the reinvestigation should not be carried out by the Sindh police. He called for the formation of a joint investigation team. Additional Prosecutor Sindh opposed the formation of a joint investigation team.
The apex court observed that Parveen Rehman was a social worker and did not have a personal enmity with anyone and she was working against the land mafia.
Rehman was gunned down near the Banaras flyover when she was returning home from work last year.
