SHC disposes of plea seeking Aamir Liaquat’s autopsy

KARACHI - The Sindh High Court on Thursday disposed of the petition seeking the autopsy and exhumation of televangelist Dr Aamir Liaquat Hussian.
The family of a renowned TV personality had approached Sindh High Court (SHC) to reverse a decision from a judicial magistrate for exhumation and autopsy, terming it an un-Islamic act and without the consent of the family.
The two-judge bench, headed by Justice Muhammad Junaid Ghaffar, heard the plea and disposed of the plea after the parties in the case reached a consensus. At the outset of today’s hearing, Justice Iqbal Kalhoro directed the complainants to approach a sessions court against the orders of the judicial magistrate as high court cannot be approached in this case directly. Later, the court wrapped up the case.
