PHC reprimands police for failing to recover Kyrgyz woman’s child
PESHAWAR: The Peshawar High Court (PHC) on Wednesday reprimanded the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police for failing to recover the son of a Kyrgyz woman from her former Pakistani husband and gave it the last chance to produce the child in court.
A division bench comprising Justice Nisar Hussain Khan and Justice Qaiser Rashid directed the police to produce the child in the court on April 26.Aiylchieva Aija, through her lawyer Abdullah, had filed a writ petition in the Peshawar High Court for safe recovery of her son Muhammad Yousaf.
During hearing, her lawyer stated that in October 2015 a trial court in Islamabad decided the case in her favour and directed her Pakistani ex-husband Muhammad
Zeb Khan to hand over the child to her. He noted that Muhammad Zeb, who belonged to Yaqoobi village in Swabi district, disappeared along with the child.
Justice Nisar Hussain observed that the DIG Mardan, SSP and DPO Mardan appeared in the case and sought time during several hearings for recovery of the child. He said that from the statements of Muhammad Zeb’s relatives and the police, it seems the cops are hand-in-glove with the accused.
The judge said the child would be recovered soon if action was taken against the SHO concerned.Justice Qaiser Rashid observed that irresponsible attitude of some police officers maligned the whole department.
“Sometimes the police recover missing persons in no time. We are taking the matter seriously and we want the child to be produced in the court at the next hearing,” the judge told the Mardan police official Javed Iqbal Marwat, who was seeking further time for recovery of the child.
Meanwhile, the PHC on Wednesday dismissed the bail petition of former deputy superintendent of police Rajab Ali and said his appeal against conviction would be decided within two months.
A two-member bench comprising Justice Waqar Ahmad Seth and Justice Syed Afsar Shah dismissed the petition.The accountability court sentenced the former deputy superintendent of police, Rajab Ali, to seven years rigorous imprisonment and Rs14.68 million fine for possessing illegal assets on February 8.
