[00:07:33] For more news, keep watching Geo News. Assalamu Alaikum, I am Shahzeb
[00:07:36] Khanzada. There has been a significant development in the Mir Raza Ali case.
[00:07:40] The Karachi court, on the application of Mir Raza Ali's father, Mir Hussain Ali,
[00:07:48] ordered a re-post-mortem yesterday.
[00:08:08] And a medical board has been formed for the exhumation.
[00:08:12] But a short while ago, Mir Raza Ali's father's lawyer, Jibran Nasir,
[00:08:16] posted on social media that he has learned from reliable sources
[00:08:20] that pressure is being put to change the medical board
[00:08:23] formed for Mir Raza Ali's re-post-mortem tomorrow.
[00:08:27] And this pressure is also to remove Police Surgeon Dr.
[00:08:30] Sumaiya Syed from this board.
[00:08:33] that Police Surgeon Karachi, Dr. Sumaiya Syed, should be the head
[00:08:37] of the medical board, and the court fully accepted our request.
[00:08:41] Earlier today, Police Surgeon Dr. Sumaiya Syed said that Mir
[00:08:45] Raza Ali's exhumation will be tomorrow at 9 AM.
[00:08:48] After the exhumation, various samples will be taken from the bodies,
[00:08:52] and immediately after taking the samples, reburial will take place.
[00:08:55] Along with this, IG Javed Alam Odho said that the police
[00:08:59] have traced the Mir Raza Ali case. The police have worked very hard
[00:09:03] on this and have traced the whole case. Karachi Police will soon hold a press conference.
[00:09:07] They will tell you all the facts. There is no negligence on the part of the police.
[00:09:11] They have made great efforts. The entire outcome of the case
[00:09:14] will come to light in a few days. There's a little ambiguity
[00:09:18] regarding the medical. The medical reports of an unrelated
[00:09:21] officer. The police have claimed
[00:09:25] to have recovered a bullet casing from Gulistan-e-Jauhar, where Mir Raza Ali's body was found.
[00:09:29] Geo News correspondent Rahid Salman reported from police sources
[00:09:32] that a bullet casing was found near the location where the body was found.
[00:09:35] The bullet will be forensically examined to determine which pistol it belongs to.
[00:09:39] According to police sources, nothing can be said immediately.
[00:10:02] The pistol has not yet been found by the police. But,
[00:10:06] before that, the plaintiff's statement is taken. This plaintiff is standing with me.
[00:10:10] They will tell you that their statement under 161 has not been taken
[00:10:14] by any investigating officer to date. They are saying that he took a gun
[00:10:17] from his house, he was worried, he had debt, digital currency.
[00:10:21] These are all rumors you are hearing. No inventory was made of his room.
[00:10:55] Nothing was seized from his place that would provide any business file,
[00:10:59] any evidence, any clue. No map was drawn of the house.
[00:11:03] What kind of investigation is this? Today, we don't even know the name
[00:11:10] If your young child is gone, you will also have doubts in your heart.
[00:11:14] They found the body, they are talking about the 28th, sometimes they are looking for the garbage collector,
[00:11:18] sometimes they bring up his finances, sometimes something else.
[00:11:21] We are talking about murder. Digital currency,
[00:11:55] investment, finance. We don't want to hear that.
[00:11:58] We want to know why the murder happened, who committed the murder.
[00:12:02] Tell us that. This child gave you clues. Why did he have to go 200 kilometers
[00:12:05] to commit suicide? Why did he have to shoot himself in the head? Dr. Sumaiya is saying
[00:12:09] the same thing. So what is your surgeon doing? Where is Dr. Osama? Why is he not coming forward?
[00:12:13] When you go there, he is not available at the hospital. He is missing.
[00:12:17] Where is he missing? He hasn't said a word yet.
[00:12:20] They are talking about something else inside the murder room, and something else outside.
[00:12:24] Our statements were not recorded. Just hi-hello. We can't say anything right now.
[00:12:28] We can't do this, we can't do that. They talk to us about something else.
[00:12:32] Look, the police are 100% sure that it was a murder.
[00:12:36] They are not speaking themselves. Mir Raza Ali's father,
[00:12:39] through his lawyer Jibran Nasir, submitted an application to the court for the exhumation
[00:12:43] and re-post-mortem of Mir Raza Ali, requesting that according to the law,
[00:12:47] Mir Raza Ali's body be exhumed. A medico-legal board consisting
[00:12:51] of senior forensic experts and pathologists should be formed
[00:12:55] under the supervision of the Police Surgeon Karachi, or an order should be issued for the formation of such a board
[00:12:58] so that after the exhumation, a medico-legal examination,
[00:13:01] post-mortem, X-ray, DNA, forensic, and chemical examination of Mir Raza Ali's body
[00:13:05] can be conducted, and the actual cause of death can be determined. The important thing is that today,
[00:13:09] the court not only accepted the application filed by Mir Raza Ali's father
[00:13:13] for exhumation and re-post-mortem, but also fully reproduced
[00:13:16] the request for forming a medical board under the leadership of the Police Surgeon.
[00:13:20] The medical board formed is under pressure to be changed.
[00:13:23] We sent a questionnaire
[00:14:25] to the Provincial Health Minister, Health Secretary, and police officials
[00:14:29] to ascertain their stance regarding Jibran Nasir's claim,
[00:14:32] but they did not respond. Jibran Nasir, the lawyer, is with us.
[00:14:36] Jibran, thank you very much for joining the show. Jibran, it's a court order.
[00:14:40] The court has accepted your application.
[00:14:44] It has ordered, and according to that order, a medical board
[00:14:47] has also been formed. Now you are saying that your reliable sources
[00:14:51] are telling you that pressure is being put to change it. After a court order,
[00:14:55] is this possible? Won't this be contempt of court? First of all,
[00:14:59] I would like to say through you
[00:15:00] that this case,
[00:15:03] if it was under investigation until today (since today is the first day that the parents
[00:15:07] approached the court and engaged a lawyer), the reason it was not abruptly closed
[00:15:11] until the eighth day was the courage of the parents and his sister,
[00:15:14] and the young people of this city who have been protesting
[00:15:18] on the streets every night for seven or eight days and demanding justice for Mir Raza
[00:15:21] and a transparent inquiry. And then you, the media,
[00:15:25] who have kept this case alive not just during prime time but round the clock,
[00:15:29] otherwise it would probably have been the people in this country
[00:15:33] who are perhaps also involved in this case who want to give it away.
[00:15:36] As this case develops,
[00:15:46] after approaching the court today, when it became clear that the parents
[00:15:49] have decided to pursue legal action and they want to take matters into their own hands
[00:15:53] and look at everything through a legal lens, suddenly the IO, who was missing for eight days,
[00:15:57] arrived and is calling them, saying, "Please give me your statement."
[00:16:01] The plaintiff, who did not come to take a statement for eight days, within a few hours,
[00:16:04] blood appeared from the place that had been completely cleaned.
[00:16:08] Perhaps by tomorrow morning, they will also produce a gun to prove
[00:16:12] that whatever happened was a self-inflicted harm, and that Mir Raza was not tortured
[00:16:16] or murdered. And the most disturbing thing that shows
[00:16:19] the malafide intent of the state, it is very sad to say that the murder
[00:16:23] of an innocent young man should not be
[00:16:27] between institutions or media or institutions or me or what do you call it, the police.
[00:16:31] Because of which, the living, laughing, playing young man became a corpse.
[00:16:35] Mir Raza was murdered; he is being saved. Thank you very much, Jibran Nasir,
[00:18:38] for expressing your thoughts on this matter. We would like to reiterate that whether it's the Health Secretary,
[00:18:41] the Health Minister, or police officials, we have contacted all three, and they can
[00:18:45] give their statement if they wish. If this statement is incorrect,
[00:18:49] and the apprehension that Jibran Nasir has is incorrect, they can remove this impression
[00:18:53] by giving a response. The important thing is
[00:18:56] that the head of the investigation team for the Mir Raza Ali case and SP of the Special Investigation Unit,
[00:19:00] Miaullah clarified
[00:19:04] that the investigations are still ongoing,
[00:19:08] and the police have not yet reached any conclusive result in this case.
[00:19:12] In the Mir Raza Ali case, the head of the investigation team and the SP of the Special Investigation Unit
[00:19:14] explained that the investigations
[00:19:18] are still ongoing, and the police have not yet reached
[00:19:22] any conclusive result in this case. Our fifth question was
[00:19:25] that Mir Raza Ali's father says that his statement has not yet been taken in the case.
[00:19:29] Why was this done? If the police are getting the impression
[00:19:33] from messages and conversations
[00:19:37] that Mir Raza Ali was in depression due to debt, then why has the father's statement
[00:19:41] not been taken yet? Our sixth question was
[00:19:45] that if Mir Raza Ali was suffering from depression and the police suspect that he committed suicide,
[00:19:49] then why was his house and room not inspected? Why were no efforts made to find evidence
[00:19:54] to Mela Sumro, we also asked that as the police are saying
[00:19:58] that Mir Raza Ali was in debt,
[00:20:02] and forensically examined their mobiles from whom Mir Raza Ali took loans?
[00:20:06] Did those people threaten Mir Raza Ali or not?
[00:20:11] Our eighth question was that according to reports,
[00:20:15] the amount of debt is very high. Can the police confirm
[00:20:19] how much debt Mir Raza Ali had, because till now,
[00:20:22] different reports are coming out? We asked the head of the case investigation team,
[00:20:26] SP Sumro, our ninth question: Is the police completely ruling out
[00:20:29] the possibility that Mir Raza Ali was murdered? Our tenth question was
[00:20:33] that if the post-mortem report was so bad, why did the police not question it at that time? It is a clear mistake of the medico-legal officer.
[00:20:50] Yes, it is, but why did the police not take note of this mistake at the right time
[00:20:54] and let it go? Does this happen in every case?
[00:20:57] Our eleventh question was that according to our sources,
[00:21:00] bodies have also been recovered from the area where Mir Raza Ali's body was found in the past.
[00:21:04] Is this true? Chase is the digital bank that gives your
[00:21:08] I also talk to my mother. My daughter often cries with me,
[00:21:12] my son also sometimes cries with me. The reason for this is not
[00:21:15] that he is in debt, so he is crying. I'm sure you also have children.
[00:21:19] Your children will come and talk to you,
[00:23:04] they won't talk to others, right? So if there was such a thing,
[00:23:10] But our topics were different, our conversations were different.
[00:23:14] You know, his wedding was next month. We were talking about something else,
[00:23:18] we cried about something else. Please don't link it to this.
[00:23:21] This moment definitely came when we both cried about something,
[00:23:25] but it was not about this. That moment was something else.
[00:23:29] I will tell you, Shahzeb, he was not one to run away from debt.
[00:23:33] But I am telling you, three crore, four crore, five crore,
[00:23:37] these are useless talks. He was such a
[00:23:40] well-educated child that he was not standing in a closed room.
[00:23:44] He was an educated child. Even the Prime Minister
[00:23:48] is taking loans. Can't he pay them back? So is he shooting himself? No, Mariam
[00:23:51] Hussain Sahiba, please tell me if he ever mentioned
[00:23:55] any threats or pressure to you.
[00:23:59] Never. As I told you,
[00:24:03] when he started, he started with three products.
[00:24:06] Today, by the grace of God, he had 200 products on his menu. He was going to launch
[00:24:09] more products on his menu, a drink, a coffee.
[00:24:13] So he used to regularly check samples with us, asking us to drink
[00:24:17] or eat them and tell him how the flavor was, whether it should be launched in Pakistan
[00:24:20] or not. So there was nothing like that on him. He was launching new things,
[00:24:24] he was looking forward to how he could expand his work
[00:24:28] and Mir Hussain sahib, did he never mention any threats or pressure to you?
[00:24:31] No, sir, no, Shahzeb, how can we tell you?
[00:24:34] From the very first day, this thing, I don't know why,
[00:24:38] is being changed. Why is it being changed?
[00:24:42] It's not understandable. The body went missing on the 28th,
[00:24:45] the body was found on the 29th. They are trying to make it out
[00:24:49] that it was not the 28th, 28th, 28th. No, sir, the body was found on the 29th.
[00:24:53] Neither blood was found at that place, nor anything else.
[00:24:56] The crime scene was not covered. Look, from the very first day
[00:25:00] until now, only and only,
[00:25:04] look, my child is being exhumed again, so believe me, that time
[00:25:07] has returned for us again. The pain we are in,
[00:25:10] whose fault is it? It is due to
[00:25:13] total, total negligence, isn't it, sir? Whose negligence is it?
[00:25:17] Who is being protected? Thank you very much, Mir
[00:25:20] Hussain Ali and Mariam Hussain Sahiba were with us. They are clearly saying that if the board is changed,
[00:25:24] they will not allow their son's exhumation again. The program is live.
[00:25:28] If government officials, to whom we have sent a message,
[00:25:32] want to respond, they can say that the board is not being changed
[00:25:36] and dispel this impression by responding. The important thing is
[00:25:40] that the head of the investigation team for the Mir Raza Ali case and SP
[00:25:44] Pimiullah clarified
[00:25:48] that the investigation
[00:26:46] is still ongoing,
[00:26:46] and the police have not yet reached
[00:26:53] any conclusive result regarding this case. In the Mir Raza Ali case, the head of the investigation team
[00:26:57] and the SP of the Special Investigation Unit clarified
[00:27:00] that the investigation
[00:28:32] is still ongoing, and the police have not yet reached
[00:28:36] any conclusive result regarding this case. Our fifth question was
[00:28:40] that Mir Raza Ali's father says that his statement has not yet been taken in the case.
[00:28:44] Why was this done? If the police are getting the impression
[00:28:47] from messages and conversations that Mir Raza Ali was in depression
[00:28:51] due to debt, then why has the father's statement not been taken yet?
[00:28:55] Our sixth question was that if Mir Raza Ali was suffering from depression
[00:28:58] and the police suspect that he committed suicide, then why was his house and room not inspected?
[00:29:04] there? In our seventh question to Mela Sumro,
[00:29:08] we also asked that as the police are saying that Mir Raza Ali was in debt,
[00:29:12] have the police interrogated those people and forensically examined their mobiles
[00:29:15] from whom Mir Raza Ali took loans? Did those people threaten Mir Raza Ali or not?
[00:29:19] Our eighth question was that according to reports,
[00:29:22] the amount of debt is very high. Can the police confirm
[00:29:26] how much debt Mir Raza Ali had, because till now,
[00:29:30] different reports are coming out?
[00:29:34] SP Sumro, our ninth question: Is the police completely ruling out
[00:29:38] the possibility that Mir Raza Ali was murdered? Our tenth question was
[00:29:41] that if the post-mortem report was so bad, why did the police not question it at that time?
[00:29:45] It is a clear mistake of the medico-legal officer. Yes, it is, but why did the police
[00:29:49] not take note of this mistake at the right time and let it go? Does this happen
[00:29:52] in every case? Our eleventh question was
[00:29:55] that according to our sources, bodies have also been recovered
[00:29:59] from the area where Mir Raza Ali's body was found in the past. Is this true?
