The Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) of the Sindh police in collaboration with the Islamabad police on Sunday claimed to have arrested a suspect in Karachi who was allegedly involved in a murder case in the federal capital.
The suspect, Faryad, was arrested during a joint operation of the CTD and Islamabad police. According to CTD SSP Junaid Shaikh, the accused was wanted to the Islamabad police for his alleged involvement in the murder a factory owner, Imdad, in Islamabad around one-and-a-half month ago.
The man has been accused of killing Imdad and dumping his body on the factory premises before escaping with an amount of Rs500,000. The suspect fled Islamabad after the murder and shifted to Karachi where he was working as a labourer, said CTD officials.
Separately, the CTD arrested two suspected criminals and seized arms and ammunition from their possession. The suspects were identified as Sabur and Salahuddin. According to CTD officials, they were involved in various cases of street crime. Cases were registered against them while further investigations are under way.

A mini Kalashnikov with bullets and a TT pistol were found on him. They police impounded his motorcycle that was said to be the stolen property of Sharifabad Police Station. The arrested man was later shifted to the headquarters for interrogation. Further investigations are under way.
