Kamran Faisal was 'murdered', claim relatives
Kamrans body was transferred to his hometown soon after his autopsy was completed.
MULTAN: A relative of deceased National Accountability Bureau (NAB) officer Kamran Faisal, who was investigating the high profile case of Rental Power Projects (RPPs), alleged on Saturday that his body has torture marks and was murdered.
The relatives of Kamran witnessed the torture marks on the deceased arms, back and wrist while giving him the ghusl, a full body ablution ritual performed before the burial.
They said that after witnessing those marks, the claim has been reinforced that Kamran Faisal did not commit suicide but was murdered.
Kamran’s body was transferred to his hometown soon after his autopsy was completed.
Earlier, authorities handed over his body to his maternal uncle in Islamabad, who later brought it to Mian Channu by road.
His funeral prayer is due later today, after which he will be laid to rest in his ancestral village.
Assistant Director NAB Kamran Faisal, engaged in the investigation of the RPP case, was mysteriously found dead in his room in the Federal Lodges on Friday.
He was found hanging from the ceiling fan when the NAB officials broke into his room, the people who witnessed the scene, said.
A three-member medical board expressed doubts at the death, saying, “This is not like what is being said.” The six-member board concluded the postmortem at 9:30pm but reserved its opinion till tomorrow, a PolyClinic official said.
The NAB insiders disclosed that Kamran Faisal, who had written the report on the RPPs case, was mentally tortured at the NAB Headquarters by some high-ups to change the report but he refused to budge.
Mohammad Iqbal, a real uncle of the deceased, disclosed that Kamran was frequently receiving threatening calls from unknown persons.
