Karachi, 12 Oct 2023:Caretaker Sindh Chief Minister Justice Maqbool Baqar, in response to a request from Jamaat Ahl-e-Hadees, has resolved to reinvestigate the murder of Maulana Zia-ur-Rehman. The decision comes after a discussion with a delegation led by Jamaat Ahl-e-Hadees Ameer Mufti Mohammad Yousif Kasori, who expressed grievances concerning the prior investigation into Maulana Zia-ur-Rehman’s demise.
The delegation, which also included Qari Usman, Maulana Afzal Sardar, Dr. Maqbool Maki, and Maulana Muzamil Siddiqui, postulated that Maulana Zia-ur-Rehman’s death, previously considered a result of cross-firing, was a targeted killing. Chief Minister Baqar conceded that conspiracies might have been woven behind the murder of the religious leader and assured the delegation of a thorough reinvestigation into the matter. Additionally, the Chief Minister and the delegation denounced the killing of innocents in Palestine and jointly prayed for the victory of the Palestinian people.
