Thursday, March 06, 2014 - Karachi—Mystery behind May 12 carnage, a day when more than 50 people were killed and dozens others were injured in incidents of bloodshed and arson on arrival of former Chief Justice (CJ) in Karachi, would be resolved shortly as the law enforcers have arrested a key man who was involved in killings and arson on Sharae Faisal on May 12 during ongoing targeted operation in Karachi.
The Pakistan Rangers has picked-up a man namely Muhammad Javed alias Javed Mohajir son of Muhammad Shariff, who is said to be a worker of a political party, from houses near Jinnah International Airport (JIA) Karachi some six months back. He was serving as a security guard in University of Karachi (KU) since 2006. Arrest of a university guard in cases of target killings has rung alarm of danger in KU.
A Joint Investigation Team (JIT) was formed to interrogate Javed Mohajir who is also nominated in cases of target killings in different areas of the city besides May 12 cases.
Investigation in case of Javed Mohajir has disclosed that he was nominated in four out of total five cases of arson and killings on Sharae Faisal on May 12. A cameraman of a private TV channel also filmed him when he was firing on crowd at Sharae Faisal.
He was nominated in FIR no. 64/2007, 65/2007, 66/2007 and 68/2007 under section 302/34 and section 7 of Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) at Airport police station for incidents of arson and killings of number of people at Sharae Faisal. He was also wanted to police in FIR no. 181/2009 under section 302/34 in Shah Faisal Colony police station and FIR no. 237/10 under section 302, 436, 147, 148 and 139 in Model Colony police station.
“He was handed over to us for investigation of May 12 cases,” an investigation officer at Airport police station, who wished not to be named, told Pakistan Observer. “He was nominated in four out of five cases which were registered on account of May 12 carnage at Airport police station,” the investigation officer confirmed, adding that “When we complete over investigation, Rangers took him back in its custody.”
“A JIT has been formed to interrogate Muhammad Javed,” Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Investigation East Munir Sheikh said. “The said person is currently in custody of Pakistan Rangers for 90 days for investigation,” Sheikh said, adding that “Once JIT completes its report then I will be in better position to respond to you.”
“The arrested person was serving as a security guard of the varsity since 2006,” KU Advisor to Vice Chancellor (VC) on Security Affairs Prof Dr Khalid Iraqi confirmed. “We have not yet been informed by any law enforcement agency that he has been arrested,” Iraqi claimed.
“However, we have come to know from reliable sources that he was arrested by the law enforcers in ongoing targeted operation in the metropolis for killing number of people,” Iraqi maintained. “We are waiting that anyone from law enforcement agencies or from his family contact us and informed us about his whereabouts,” he added.
“We have submitted a report to Deputy Registrar General (DRG) that the said security guard is not attending the office since November 16, 2013,” the security advisor said, adding “The DRG office has closed his salary account and send a show cause notice at his residence for disappearing from the office without any prior notice.”
“Arrest of a varsity guard on account of target killing is not less than a shock,” KU VC Prof Dr Muhammad Qaiser said. “I have investigated the matter by myself and I have come to know that the guards, who were hired for providing security inside the campus, were appointed without verification from law enforcement agencies,” the VC disclosed.
“The VC said, to address security issues inside the campus, we have decided to hire some guards and we have decided that from now no guard would be appointed without verification from law enforcement agencies,” he vowed. “As far as Muhammad Javed is concerned, we are trying to get his updates to decide his case.”
