Was Ranjhani a criminal?
The initial investigation report into Irshad Ranjhani murder case on Feb 9 revealed that the political worker was booked in four criminal cases.
The investigation team found the criminal record of Ranjhani, who was killed by Union Council (UC) chairman Rahim Shah in city’s Bhains Colony area.
“One case is lodged in North Nazimabad police station while another in Bahadurabad station. Moreover, two cases are registered in the station of Defense area of Karachi,” the investigation officer said.
The cases were lodged on the complaints of robbery and possessing illegal weapon against Ranjhani.
Police have refuted reports related to the abduction of Ranjhani and then murdering him. Further records pertaining to the whereabouts of the murdered political worker have been obtained by the investigation team.
According to eye-witnesses, some persons riding a motorbike accompanying with Ranjhani had fled the scene after Rahim Shah opened fire, and one of them –Ranjhani – was killed.
A video had surfaced later which showed Irshad Ranjhani, lying in the pool of his blood. Surrounded by onlookers, Rahim Shah, can be heard claiming in the video that he was a “robber” and “carrying a weapon”. Police had also recovered a 9mm pistol from Ranjhani after the incident.
