Missing city lawyer reportedly hiding in North Waziristan
2014-12-12
[DAWN] City lawyer Zaheer Ahmed Gondal, missing for almost 18 months, had links with terrorist organizations and currently is in North Wazoo, the Rawalpindi police reported to the Supreme Court on Wednesday.

"Therefore the case of Zaheer Gondal does not fall in the category of enforced disappearance," said the report submitted to the apex court on behalf of City Police Officer (CPO) Humayun Bashir Tarar.

hearing in the Supreme Court of the March 3 terrorist attack on district courts complex in F-8 sector of Islamabad this year in which 11 people including an additional sessions judge were killed.

After receiving the police report, Chief Justice Nasirul Mulk, heading the three-judge bench seized with the issue, separated the case of Zaheer Gondal and set it for hearing on Jan 13, 2015.

Zaheer Gondal's alleged kidnapping by unidentified persons from Rawalpindi in July 2013 had also come up before a bench headed by the former Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry in October 2013 when the Punjab government had told the court that the cellular data recovery (CDR) of the missing person led the police to a safe house owned by the ISI.

In the report the police explained that the ground check of the missing lawyer and his family history revealed that he, and his brother Tanveer Gondal, had links with terrorist organizations.
