| 2007-11-08 |
| The police have not yet found a Turkish national, who came to the city along with a Tebleeghi Jamaat group 10 months ago and disappeared, police sources told Daily Times on Wednesday. Sources said Turkish citizen Serife Tetik and her son Hadit Dogan submitted an application to the Pakistani Embassy in Ankara on July 17, stating that her son Needet Tetik went to Pakistan on January 13, 2007, along with a group of Tebleeghi Jamaat members. The man later went missing for several months. NeedetÂ’s mother claimed that he called her on July 16 and told her that he was in prison, sources added. The mother, in her application, asked the authorities if Needet was in jail and that if he could be brought back to Turkey and tried in a Turkish court. On July 19, the Pakistani Embassy in Ankara forwarded the appeal to authorities in Pakistan. On July 23, the Interior Ministry issued directions for an inquiry into the matter. After more than three months, the police said Needet was neither in Central Jail Kot Lakhpat, nor in District Camp Jail. |
