Furqan Iqbal was found dead with two bullet wounds on the upper torso of his body on Wednesday. His body was found on a road off Super Highway near a village within the jurisdiction of Memon Goth cop shoppe. "The victim was an officer-bearer of the MQM-P and lived in Gulshan-e-Iqbal," said party chief Dr Farooq Sattar. Speaking at a presser at party’s temporary headquarters in Bahadurabad on Thursday, he claimed Iqbal was killed in ’custody’ and said such killings must be stopped. Dr Sattar said over 150 workers of the party were missing and demanded their release. He alleged that Iqbal was taken away by ’personnel’ in plain clothes. After his ’arrest,’ a petition was filed in the Sindh High Court, which was pending when he was killed after ’illegal detention’ of 14 days, he added. |
