KARACHI: A woman who says her son was picked up by the Pakistan Rangers on October 14 from his Gulshan home has gone to court.
According to Akhtari Begum, her son Asif Iqbal was at his flat at Five Star Luxury Apartments in Gulshan-e-Iqbal when he was taken away in a raid by the Rangers.
Her petition was heard by Chief Justice Mushir Alam and Justice Ahmed Ali M Sheikh on Thursday.
She approached the area’s police but they denied the arrest. She has named the home secretary, chiefs of police, Gulshan town police officer and the SHO of New Town police station among others in her petition. She has asked the court to declare his alleged detention illegal and in violation of Articles 4, 9, 10 and others of the Constitution.
She also asked the court to order the registration of a case against the people who were keeping him in custody.
The next hearing will be fixed later by the office of the court.
