KARACHI: The Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) team formed to probe Intezar’s murder completed its investigation, confirming that police personnel Daniyal and Bilal were directly involved in the killing of the youth.

However, police officials claim that solid proof has not been found against Muqaddas Haider, who was serving as the SSP of Anti Car Lifting Cell (ACLC) when the incident took place.

Intezar’s father believes that the evidence of his son’s murder has been destroyed.

While addressing a news conference in Karachi a day earlier, Ishtiaq said a joint investigation team was made over the case but it was suspended and a new one was not formed despite an assurance by Senate’s Standing Committee on Human Rights.

CCTV footage

The CCTV footage of Intezar’s murder first surfaced on January 28 — two weeks after police allegedly shot him dead in Karachi.

The footage showed the 19-year-old’s car being intercepted by another one from the front, while a third vehicle and a motorcycle also arrive at the scene, stopping to the left of his car.

Apart from these, another motorbike stays at a little distance to the right side of Intezar’s car.

Shortly after the 19-year-old’s vehicle is signalled to go, it is shot at from the back, the footage revealed. The plain-clothed personnel riding the second motorbike and positioned to the right also fire shots at Intezar’s vehicle.

The video also showed that none of the police personnel at the spot is uniformed.
