F.P. Report

PESHAWAR: Sher Alam, the brother of Naqeebullah Mehsud, the youth who was killed in a fake police encounter, told to media that his brother wanted to become famous on Facebook.

Speaking to a private television channel from Waziristan, Sher Alam said that his brother used to spend most of his earning on his dresses and fashion as he wanted to become a Facebook star.

“My brother was a laborer and used to earn Rs25, 000 to Rs30, 000 a month. He was hardly able to meet his own expenses,: Sher Alam recalled.

To a question, he said that Naqeebullah wasn’t a terrorist as falsely claimed by the police.

Sher Alam called for execution of SSP Rao Anwar for killing his brother by portraying him a terrorist.

Naqeebullah was picked by plainclothes men on January 3 and later killed on January 17 by the police, claiming that he was a member of militant work.

The killing sparked an outrage on social media.

Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah set up a three-member committee to launch an inquiry into the incident. The committee conducted an inquiry and ruled that Naqeebullah was innocent.

SSP Malir Rao Anwar was transferred and directed to report to CPO.
