asked him to connect his statements of enmity or difference with the
conspiracy to eliminate the party chief, in which he failed saying he will come
to that, but even after one hour of his deposition, he failed and the chairman
of the tribunal, Justice Nasir Aslam Zahid, judge of the Supreme Court, called
off his evidence by saying that political differences don't mean that there
were conspiracies to eliminate people.
The judge remarked that positive evidence is needed to prove conspiracy and
that the witness had not named anybody except the differences between
people. Two other witnesses were to appear for giving evidence also on
conspiracy and they were ex-MPA Rahim Bux Jamali and Behram Khan
Ujjan, but the party withdrew their names.
Two applications filed by Karim Khan Agha, counsel for the DIG Karachi, Dr
Shoaib Suddle, and two ASPs, Rai Tahir and Shahid Hayat, were turned
down by the tribunal, and one of them was to call for the preliminary report
of the British team of investigators and the other was to admit as evidence a
report relating to the dislocation of the medicolegal register at JPMC which
was later found in the bushes near Clifton PS.
The tribunal, which also has two other members, Justice Amanullah Abbasi
and Justice (Dr) Ghous Mohammad, judges of the High Court of Sindh,
adjourned the hearing until 11:30 am on Sunday.
