KARACHI: A senior police officer, sent to Dubai to take custody of Shahrukh Jatoi, the main suspect in the Shahzeb Khan murder case, returned on Friday without success.

SP Niaz Ahmed Khosa had flown to Dubai on Jan 7 after the National Central Bureau (Interpol Office in Pakistan) issued diffusion notice to their counterparts in the UAE.

The UAE officials had confirmed to the officer that Shahrukh Jatoi was in the city.

“The authorities in Dubai told us that they expect Jatoi’s arrest in next four to five days,” SP Khosa told Dawn on his return to Karachi.
