The Sindh High Court has dismissed a petition from the family of Mir Raza Ali, who sought the formation of a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) to investigate his murder. The court stated that establishing a JIT falls under the government’s authority, not the judiciary’s. The family had expressed concerns over the existing investigation and alleged an attempt to conceal facts surrounding Ali’s death. They had previously requested a JIT instead of a judicial commission proposed by the provincial government. However, the two-member bench ruled against directing the government to form a JIT and declined any interference with the ongoing criminal investigation. The court reserved its verdict on Monday and issued the dismissal today. Further details are expected to follow.
