Senior Police Officer Charged With Wife’s Murder

On Tuesday, a session’s court charged a senior police officer for the murder of his wife. The senior police officer, named Mian Jamshed Inamullah, was a superintendent of police and was booked for allegedly killing his wife, Hina, in their home in the Defence Housing Authority in July last year.

Officer Inamullah pleaded not guilty and opted to contest the case after the additional district and sessions judge Sohail Mohammad Leghari read out the charges against the accused. The prosecution witnesses were summoned with the directive to record their testimonies on the 7th of May.

The prosecution revealed that the case was initially registered under Section 302 (premeditated murder) of the Pakistan Penal Code. However, the police did not arrest the officer and instead submitted a charge sheet against him under Section 319 (unintentional murder) of the PPC in August.

The investigating officer alleged that the suspect was polishing a firearm when it ‘accidentally’ went off.

The court replaced Section 319 with 302 and issued a warrant against the SP, who was posted in Quetta following the recommendations of the Prosecutions. The SP was arrested and sent to prison earlier this year after the court ordered police high-ups to arrest him.
