Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has taken notice of the escape of Zohaib Qureshi — the prime suspect in the Dua Mangi kidnapping case — from police custody.
He directed the home secretary and inspector general of police (IGP) to take strict action against those responsible for the suspect’s escape.
Head constable Naveed and constable Zaffar, both of whom were responsible for escorting the suspect back to prison, have been taken into custody following the chief minister’s notice.
CM Murad directed the SSP court police to suspend both officials and have an FIR registered against them.
It is pertinent to mention here that Qureshi, the prime suspect in the Dua Mangi kidnapping case, has been sentenced to three years’ imprisonment in a different criminal case while the case of her kidnapping still hangs in the balance.
