Remand of policemen extended in Korangi fake encounter case

KARACHI: (HRNW) A local court on Friday extended the physical remand of three policemen for killing a factory worker in Mehran Town’s ‘fake’ police encounter.

Thirty-three-year-old Wasif Riaz, a father of two, was shot dead in the jurisdiction of the Korangi Industrial Area police station in the early hours of Sunday. His family claimed that he was killed near his residence.

The brother of the deceased alleged that Wasif was killed by the policemen over personal enmity.

The suspects Danish, Zeeshan and Farhan were produced before the court after their physical remand expired today.

The court after extending the physical remand of three cops for two days sought a progress report from the investigation officer of the case on the next hearing.

Three policemen had been suspended and arrested on Sunday after they allegedly killed the factory worker in a fake encounter in Mehran Town.
