Karachi (HRNW) — Judicial Magistrate West reportedly conducted a raid at Pak Colony Police Station in an effort to recover two citizens, Shamir son of Zubair and Nauman Baloch son of Shaukat Ali, who were allegedly taken away by a Pak Colony police team earlier in the day.
According to lawyer Fareed Baloch, the two citizens were allegedly taken by police personnel identified as Bilal and Salman Baloch. He said the judicial magistrate conducted the raid to secure their recovery.
The lawyer further alleged that before the judicial magistrate’s visit, Shamir and Nauman Baloch were moved to or concealed at an unknown location, preventing their recovery from the police station.
Fareed Baloch also alleged that the families of the two citizens were being harassed. The court has reportedly summoned the SHO Pak Colony and the concerned police team for a hearing tomorrow.
According to the lawyer, a few days earlier, Shamir and Nauman Baloch had staged a protest seeking the recovery of Liaquat Baloch. He alleged that the present action against the two citizens was linked to their protest.
The police have yet to publicly respond to these allegations.
