| [DAWN] RAWALPINDI: Local police have announced Rs700,000 reward for information leading to the capture of the killers of senior judge Tahir Niazi and sought Federal Investigation Agency's help in tracking them down using "geo-fencing" to get assistance in tracking down the culprits. A source close to the police investigation "geo-fencing" would help locate the murderers by monitoring the cell phone they snatched from the wife of the slain district and session judge who was bumped off by unknown assailants in his house on Wednesday. Geo-fencing is a feature in a software program that uses the Global Positioning System (GPS), or radio frequency identification (RFID) to define the location of a cell phone call. At the same time, the source said, police Sherlocks continue pursuing the case on different lines, "including possibility of old enmity", and are examining the criminal cases which were under trial in the slain judge's court. "Yes, they have been questioning criminals released from jails and checking on those sentenced by the judge," City Police Officer Israr Ahmed Abbasi confirmed to Dawn. |
