Senator Tahir Mashadi has claimed that 49 workers of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) were missing while 26 others were murdered in ‘extra judicial killings’.
During a meeting of Senate’s Standing Committee on Interior, with Senator Talha Mehmood in the chair, Mashadi said innocent people are detained in Karachi while miscreants are moving freely. He said it was injustice to detain anyone for 90 days.
“Over 17,000 people were arrested during the Karachi operation but no one was awarded any punishment,” said the senator, adding that at the lower level the judicial system in Karachi was not working properly.
