WEBDESK: Minister of State for Interior, Talal Chaudhry, speaking during a press conference, alongside the Inspector General of Islamabad Police, on Tuesday, described the Sardar Faheem murder case as a major test case for Islamabad Police, highlighting the importance of swift and effective action in high profile investigations.
He further said that the government is making every possible effort to reduce the crime rate.
Speaking to the media, Talal Chaudhry said that “if blind murder cases are not resolved in time, they are often lost.” He stressed that “it is the government’s duty to protect the lives and property of its citizens.”
Talal Chaudhry further added, “We are making every possible effort to reduce the crime rate.” He also mentioned that the “Sardar Fahim murder case was a major test case for Islamabad Police.”
Inspector General of Islamabad Police has revealed that in connection with the Sardar Faheem murder case, 57 suspects were questioned during the investigation. Raids were conducted at nine different locations, including in Gujranwala and Sargodha, where the suspects were arrested. One of the arrested men already has 25 criminal cases against him, including charges of robbery and other crimes.
According to the IG, both suspects had entered Sardar Faheem’s house with the intention of robbery. When Sardar Faheem resisted, they attacked him with an iron rod, which resulted in his death.
The press conference highlighted the swift action taken by law enforcement in this case and the government’s continued commitment to maintaining public safety.
Faheem Sardar, son of Brigadier (R) Sardar Ahmed, was found tied up and severely injured at his residence in Sector G-6/4, Islamabad on June 25 (Wednesday). The FIR was lodged by Zakir Habib Khan, the real uncle of the deceased, after being informed of the incident by his niece, Iram Nadeem. She told him over the phone that Faheem was lying unconscious at his home.
Upon reaching the scene, Zakir Habib Khan discovered that unknown individuals had murdered Faheem. Sources said that Faheem’s uncle stepped forward as the complainant because Faheem’s brother currently resides in the United States, and the family may have had no other option.
