Bureau Chief of Geo TV Fahim Siddiqui was kidnapped from Karachi's North Nazimabad area on Saturday and was tortured before being dumped in Manghopir, according to police and the victim.
| Was it someone from the government? |
Four suspects travelling in a vehicle kidnapped the journalist as he left his home within the jurisdiction of Shahra-e-Noorjehan in his car on link road, said Karachi-West DIG Feroze Shah.
Shah said three of them wore police uniforms while the fourth man was in a civilian dress.
| Definitely could be like someone from the government. |
They also snatched his mobile phone and his licensed pistol, he added.
They subjected him to 'slight torture' before dumping him in Manghopir, the DIG further said.
