Later talking to the media, the Sindh Governor said that the Prime Minister had sent him here to get the details of the incident and inform him.
He said that he would provide all possible assistance to the heirs of Nazim Jokhio and would take the case to a logical conclusion. In this regard, he would also talk to the Chief Minister Sindh and IG Sindh.
Ismail said that Nazim Jokhio was brutally killed and his heirs were also receiving threats. So far, the names of the real killers have not been included in the case and the forest law will not be allowed to prevail here.
He further said that it was not possible for the powerful to oppress the oppressed under the present regime.
He said that the provincial government did not have confidence in JIT and in this regard, he would ask the Prime Minister to form JIT at the federal level.
