APPEAL: A resident of Kot Mirs has appealed to Sindh Chief Minister, Governor, Chief Secretary and Secretary Health to take notice of failure to set up a medical board for conducting post-mortem of his son Surjeet.

Safedo Meo told journalists on Thursday that his son Surjeet, 45, father of six was brutally murdered and his body buried in a ditch at his poultry farm by killers about four months back. He said about a month back his murder was disclosed and a case lodged with Kot Ghulam Mohammad police but as yet his body had not been recovered therefore no post-mortem.
