ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Monday summoned former secretaries of interior and Foreign Office in a matter pertaining to implementation of court orders regarding missing person Umar Abdullah’s case.
Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani conducted hearing on the case filed by Zainab Zaeem, the wife of missing person Abdullah.
During the hearing, the court observed that it would issue arrest warrants against these officials if they failed to appear before the court on next hearing.
According to Geo News, Justice Kayani observed that the inability to recover missing persons showed incompetence of the government and the state. The court remarked that police officers used to wear uniforms only but did nothing. The court asked about the status of first information report (FIR) as the case was registered six years ago. The investigation officer said that a probe was underway.
