ISLAMABAD, Sept 1: A woman who is running from pillar to post to locate her missing husband has again appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry to help her.

In her fresh application, Amina Masood, whose husband Masood Janjua has been missing since July 30, 2005, has also requested the government to take effective measures as it was the right of every peace-loving citizen of the country that no harm should come to their prestige.

Amina Masood has already filed an application with the Supreme Court, seeking directions against security agencies for early recovery of her husband who went missing mysteriously.

At the last hearing, the apex court had ordered the Punjab inspector general police to inform the court as to why the police failed to recover Masood Janjua when a report was lodged on September 7, 2005.

In her fresh application, Ms Janjua deplored that the police officers though visited her house to record statements, did nothing to recover her husband.

She pleaded the apex court to direct the director-general of Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), and heads of Military Intelligence and Federal Investigation Unit to submit a fact- finding report regarding mysterious disappearance of her husband.

She also requested the Supreme Court to directly order intelligence agencies to find whereabouts of her husband as the federal government had already told the Sindh High Court that it had no operational control over both ISI and MI, and, therefore, could not enforce court’s directions.

She recalled that Masood Janjua had gone to Peshawar to attend a Tablighi (religious) congregation along with his friend Faisal Faraz in 2005. The family of Faisal Faraz had also moved the apex court on similar grounds, she added.

Masood, a businessman, was also attached with the Hamza Foundation engaged in the welfare work. The foundation also runs a private hospital in Sector I-10, Islamabad.

Masood had gone to Bannu Area four times in 2005, sometimes alone sometimes with friends, to participate in the rehabilitation of refugees. He also had distributed plastic Igloo-type tents, medicines and sacrificial animals on Eidul Zaha among refugees.

She deplored that her father-in-law, also a retired army officer, tried his best to locate his son and even approached his son’s close friend who happened to work in one of the security agencies, but the latter mislead him.

Masood’s father had also delivered an application to President Pervez Musharraf on Eidul Azha in 2006 during army officers’ get-together in the Presidency, and was informed later on telephone that his son was alive, but he was not with the government agency.
