Mir Raza Case: Judicial Commission’s Future Uncertain as Mandate Nears End

A judicial commission was established on August 26 to investigate the death of Mir Raza, which occurred over two months ago. The police have yet to determine whether the death was a suicide or murder. The commission began its proceedings on August 27 with a 30-day mandate. As this period concludes, its request for a 15-day extension to the Sindh government has not yet been approved, putting further work in jeopardy. A crucial hearing with the investigation officer and an FIA representative is scheduled for September 28, but may not proceed without an extension.
