The Sindh High Court has issued notices to various officials, including federal and provincial law officers and Sindh’s police chief, following a petition for Ahmed’s recovery.
Ahmed’s wife, Amber Zulfiqar, emphasized her husband’s prominence in the textile and oil industries.
She detailed that on July 23, Ahmed and his friend Qaiser were intercepted by armed men in a double-cabin vehicle while traveling to Agra Taj Colony.
Qaiser was released shortly after, but Ahmed remains missing.The family reached out to law enforcement for information, but no details about Ahmed’s location were provided.
The family’s lawyer revealed that an attempt to file an FIR at Kalri police station was initially unsuccessful.
The court has been asked to compel law enforcement to locate and produce Ahmed, and to disclose any pending charges against him.
The petitioner also seeks a court order to prevent any criminal proceedings against Ahmed following his abduction, and to ensure a case is registered against those responsible for his disappearance.
