'No positive leads regarding Sabri's assassination or Awais's kidnapping'
2016-06-25
[DAWN] Inspector General A.D. Khawaja on Friday said the investigation of famed qawwal Amjad Sabri’s liquidation and the kidnapping of Awais Shah, son of chief justice of Sindh High Court, has produced no positive leads till now.

"So far no positive leads have emerged in our preliminary investigations," said the IG, chairing a presser after holding a high level meeting with bigwigs.

The province’s top cop added the investigation for both cases is at an initial level.

Suhail Anwar Siyal, home minister of the province, said joint investigation teams (JIT) will be constituted for both cases.

The minister also announced a reward of Rs5 million for information leading to Sabri’s attackers. He regretted the federal government appeared reluctant to provide access to GSM locators, geo-fencing and the Nadra family tree to Sindh police.

Famed qawwal Amjad Sabri was rubbed out on Wednesday afternoon in a assassination on his car by armed motorcyclists in Liaquatabad.

The 40-year-old Sabri, son of qawwali maestro Ghulam Farid Sabri, was heading to a private TV channel to perform in a Ramazan transmission when he was attacked, police said.

The qawwal was laid to rest on Thursday in the Paposhnagar Graveyard, next to his father Ghulam Farid Sabri.
