ISLAMABAD: Governor Sindh Imran Ismail has written a letter to Director General (DG) Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) for adding name of prime suspect in Nazim Jokhio murder case, PPP MNA Jam Abdul Karim, to PNIL, ARY NEWS reported.
In a letter written to the FIA, the governor Sindh said that Jam Abdul Karim is nominated in the murder case of Nazim Jokhio and is planning to return to Pakistan from abroad.
He asked the DG to add his name to Provisional National Identification List (PNIL) in order to bar him from escaping from the country after voting during no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed on Saturday announced to arrest Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) MNA Jam Abdul Karim -booked in the murder case of Nazim Jokhio- who is planning to return to Pakistan to cast his vote during no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Addressing a presser, the interior minister lamented that an absconding PPP MNA is being brought to cast his vote during the no-trust motion and said that as soon as Jam Abdul Karim will return to Pakistan, he will be arrested.
“Jam Abdul Karim’s name will also be added to ECL,” he said and added, “Consultation will also be made to arrest him via Interpol.” After his arrest, Sheikh Rasheed said that Jam Abdul Karim will be handed over to IG Sindh.
