| Harkat activist goes missing |
| 2003-03-14 |
| The law enforcement agencies have picked up an activist of Harkat-ul-Mujahideen from Quetta, his father Mohammad Hayat Lehri claimed on Wednesday night. "My 22-year-old son, Abdul Aziz Lehri, is missing for the last one month," he said and claimed that he had been taken into custody by secret agencies. Gosh. That's too bad. (snicker!) He told reporters here that his son had gone to see one of his friends in Wahdat Colony on Feb 13 and did not return since. He said that he and his family searched him in Quetta and other places but no clue could be found despite passage of almost a month. "I am sure he is in the custody of law enforcement agencies who had also arrested Abdul Rehman, an Egyptian, the same night," Mohammad Hayat said. "My son is an activist of Harkat-ul-Mujahideen and had taken part in the Kashmir Jihad," he said. He said he had lodged a report with the police station concerned about his son's disappearance, but a senior police official told him that the matter was with the ISI and he could not do anything. However, SSP Quetta, Rahmatullah Niazi, said: "I have no information about the arrest of Abdul Aziz." He added that police had not taken him into custody. My guess is that he went to see his friend, they were playing cards, and Abdul Aziz had five aces, so the friend shot him and buried him in the back yard. |
