The DNA of Karachi businessman Mir Raza has matched samples collected from his parents, officials said on Tuesday. The development is part of the ongoing investigation into his death.
Authorities have also expanded the investigation team handling the case. A notification has been issued for the appointment of two additional officers.
According to the notification, DSP Sirajuddin and Inspector Muhammad Ali have been included in the investigation team. Their addition has increased the strength of the team to seven members.
The latest appointments come as investigators continue to examine different aspects of the case. Police are also reviewing the available evidence as part of the probe.
Meanwhile, the former investigation officer appeared before the Judicial Magistrate East in connection with the case. He requested additional time to submit the investigation report.
The former officer told the court that the investigation was still in progress. He also informed the court that senior authorities had changed the officer responsible for investigating the case.
He said the newly appointed investigation officer would appear before the court at the next hearing. The officer is expected to continue the investigation and submit the required report.
The court accepted the request for more time. It directed the former investigation officer to submit the report by August 15.
The court proceedings took place as investigators continued their efforts to establish the circumstances surrounding Mir Raza’s death.
The DNA match with his parents has also provided an important development in the investigation. Authorities are now expected to continue examining other evidence and findings linked to the case.
