Father mourns son killed before wedding day

The father of murdered Karachi resident Mir Raza Ali Khan has revealed that his son was eagerly preparing

The father of murdered Karachi resident Mir Raza Ali Khan has revealed that his son was eagerly preparing for his wedding, which was scheduled to take place on August 30, describing the tragedy as devastating for the family.

Speaking to the media, the grieving father said Mir Raza left home on the morning of July 28 for work but never returned. When repeated attempts to contact him failed because his phone was switched off, the family filed a missing person’s report at the local police station the same day.

He said the family later traced his last known location through an online ride-hailing service. Upon reaching the location, they found police officials from Gulistan-e-Jauhar already present.

According to the father, police informed the family that an unidentified body had been recovered earlier that morning. Although the victim’s face was unrecognizable, the clothes matched those worn by his son, confirming his identity.

The bereaved father said Mir Raza had never shared any concerns about business disputes or personal problems with the family, leaving them shocked and searching for answers behind the killing.

Mir Raza Ali Khan, a resident of Karachi’s PECHS area, was found dead in Gulistan-e-Jauhar. Police are continuing their investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding his abduction and murder.
