Intezar Ahmed was killed after the police's Anti Car Lifting Cell (ACLC) officials opened fire on his car on Khayaban-e-Ittehad on January 14. In its report Counter Terrorism Department stated that Intezar was murdered intentionally and police personnel Daniyal and Bilal were directly involved in the killing, however, it gave clean chit to Muqaddas Haider, who was serving as the ACLC SSP when the incident took place.
In a notification issued today, it was stated that the state counsel Abdul Razzar Gujjar has been transferred from court number 6 to court number 9.
Seprately, the father of Ahmed, alleged that evidence of his son's murder has been destroyed.
Addressing a press conference, the father, Ishtiaq Ahmed, said his son was murdered on January 13 and the case was handed over to the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) on his request. He recalled that a joint investigation team (JIT) was also made, but it was suspended.
Ishtiaq lamented that a new JIT has not been formed, despite an assurance by the Senate's Standing Committee on Human Rights. He named a girl, Mahrukh, who he claimed was friends with his son and both were schoolmates.
He alleged further that Mahrukh's father had called him from the United States and threatened him saying that 'his brother serves on a key post in Karachi'.
