ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court of Pakistan bench hearing the case pertaining to the suo motu notice taken over the murder of 20-year-old Shahzeb Khan issued a short verdict on Friday which rejected the inquiry report on the case, DawnNews reported.

The bench also ordered the Director General of Federal Investigations Agency (FIA) to submit a reply within three days over a false report presented earlier in the court.

The court also ordered the trial courts to hear Shahzeb Khan’s murder case on a daily basis and to apprise the SC over the progress.

Earlier the court had remarked that the role of the FIA in providing the video footage was un-satisfactory adding that there should be action against police and FIA officials involved in, prime accused in the case, Sharukh Jatoi’s escape from the country.

Karachi police had submitted the file pertaining to Shahzdeb Khan’s murder at the beginning of Friday’s hearing in the Supreme Court.
