Raza had gone missing on July 28. The 25-year-old’s body was found a day later with a gunshot wound in bushes near Shahi Qila Ground in Gulistan-i-Jauhar.

Sindh Home Minister Ziaul Hassan Lanjar announced the decision on Sunday after visiting Mir Raza Ali’s residence with Karachi Mayor Barrister Murtaza Wahab and senior police officials to offer condolences to his family.

Lanjar said the provincial government would write to the chief justice of the SHC today, requesting the formation of the judicial commission on the recommendation of Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah.

The home minister said a new police investigation team headed by DIG Amir Farooqi had also been constituted, with three SSPs as members. The team would remain in close contact with Mir Raza’s family and keep his parents informed about progress in the case.
