ISLAMABAD: Preliminary investigation into the threatening letters received by the judges of the Supreme Court (SC) and the Islamabad and Lahore High Courts has revealed that they were sent from the same place, on Thursday.
Quoting its sources, the channel reported that the letters had been sent from the sub-divisional post office, Satellite Town, Rawalpindi as the same address was written on the stamps pasted on all these letters.
Sources disclosed that in this connection the law enforcement agencies (LEAs), including the police and the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), had started questioning the post office staff.
They elaborated that the LEAs were investigating the case from different angles and they were also looking for any suspicious activity around the post boxes situated near the post office.
Islamabad Police, they informed, were busy collecting videos from the CCTV cameras installed near the post office.
Similarly, sources told 24News, the investigators were also scanning the videos obtained from the CCTV cameras installed inside and outside the SC and the IHC buildings.
On Tuesday, just a day after the Supreme Court took suo motu notice of the letter written by six judges of the IHC in which they had alleged intervention in their work by the country’s spy agencies, all eight judges of the high court, including the chief justice, received “suspected anthrax-laced letters”.
Following the development, a police team of experts launched a thorough probe to collect facts and ascertain the nature of the powdery substance those letters contained.
And on Wednesday, same threatening letters were sent to the SC judges, including Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Qazi Faez Isa, making the case more mysterious.
