KARACHI: A district and sessions judge directed the wing commander of the Rangers on Tuesday to file a detailed report on the paramilitary soldiers who were allegedly involved in beating up a court bailiff in New Karachi on December 9.
The district and sessions judge, Central, Javed Ahmed Keerio, directed the commander of the Rangers 44 wing, located in New Karachi, to submit a detailed report along with his comments about the incident in three days.
Imtiaz Khan, a bailiff in the district Central, was allegedly beaten by the in-charge and other officials of the Rangers wing 44 while he was buying fruits along with his family in a bazaar near a bus stop in New Karachi on Monday.
In his application, Khan told the court that the Rangers officials, four men riding on two motorcycles, and other officials in a Rangers mobile van, came and started searching his vehicle.
When he inquired the officials about the search, they allegedly started beating him right in front of his family in the bazaar, he said. Khan said that he told the officials that he was a judicial staffer and presented his official card as proof but it was torn into pieces and thrown away, adding that the men in uniform used derogatory remarks about courts and his profession.
Khan told the court that he was taken to the Rangers’ camp office where he was beaten for hours and then later dumped at the same bazaar around 1:30am.
Following his application, the judge immediately sent Khan to the hospital for medical treatment with directions to the MLO to issue a medico-legal certificate at an earliest.
Mohammad Chuttan Rahimo, president of the All-Sindh Subordinate Judicial Staff Welfare Organisation (ASSJWO), condemned the incident, saying that a meeting has been convened today [Wednesday] to discuss further course of action. He added that the entire judicial staff will go on a pen-down strike if no action is taken against the accused Rangers.
