An anti-terrorism court (ATC) has reserved its verdict in a teenager’s murder case after a three-year-long trial against policemen. The ATC-VII is set to announce the decision on July 30, as the prosecution and the defence have completed their arguments.
Intezar Ahmed, 19, was allegedly murdered by policemen in the upmarket DHA neighbourhood on January 13, 2018. According to his father Ishtiaq Ahmed, his son had left the house to eat out with his friends but was later brutally murdered. He claimed that his son’s murder was pre-planned.
Eight policemen belonging to the Anti-Car Lifting Cell Tariq Rahim, Tariq Mehmood, Azhar Ahsan, Shahid, Fawad Khan, Daniyal, Bilal Rasheed and Ghulam Abbas went to trial on a charge of murder.

KARACHI:
The Sindh High Court issued on Friday an interim stay order against the demolition of farm houses owned by opposition leader in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh in a contempt plea relating to the matter. The court also issued contempt of court notices to the Sindh chief secretary and other parties.
At the hearing, counsel for the petitioner, advocate Shamsul Islam, contended that the demolition of the properties by the Sindh government was an act of revenge and that the provincial had wrongly interpreted the Supreme Court s order on the matter.
