A body bearing torture marks was found in the outskirts of the city on Friday. Police said the body was found in bushes within the limits of the Bin Qasim police station. Upon receiving the information, police reached the scene and shifted the body to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre for medico-legal formalities where the victim was identified as 19-year-old Gul Muhammad Shah.
According to police, the deceased hailed from Khairpur Nathan Shah from where he had arrived in Karachi about five months ago and was working at a private company. Quoting initial investigation, police said the deceased was apparently tortured to death by unidentified persons over a personal enmity and they were looking for the victim’s heirs to register a case. Further investigations are under way.
