Mir Raza Case – when 21 seconds, a fistful of grass and a phone password raised more questions than answers

*DOT TO DOT FINDINGS:*

*1. Where is the 21-second video?*

The claim is that on July 28 at 3:30 AM, two persons on a motorcycle brought the body and stayed for 22 seconds. After 53 days, that video and the alleged crying audio have still not been made part of the investigation file or the commission record.

*2. How is the grass in the fist from the same spot?*

The forensic note says the grass tightly clutched in the fist matches the grass at the recovery spot. Blood absorption marks were also found in the soil. If the body was brought from elsewhere and dumped in 21 seconds, how did the same spot’s grass get locked in the fist?

*3. Acid bottles or bleach bottles?*

Initial claim was industrial-grade acid bath. A woman residing near the spot stated they were empty bleach bottles discarded by her daughter-in-law. Chemical report is still not on record.

*4. Password and financial trail:*

Binance and phone passwords were provided by the sister in her statement and she personally visited NCCIA to provide them. According to NCCIA, 10 campaigns, total trading of Rs 90 million and loss of Rs 38 million. Business partner stated Rs 5 million invested in Aug 2025 and Rs 10 million in March 2026 with no written agreement, only WhatsApp chat. Profit was normal till April 2026, then declined. Waflex manager stated daily sale dropped from Rs 130,000 to Rs 70,000, salary delayed by 2-3 months, and guard’s pistol went missing at 6:30 PM on July 28.

*5. Why was medical board changed?*

DG Health admitted before the commission that for the first time in his career, the board was changed on telephone instructions from Special Secretary Health and names were also provided from there. File contains a note dated 9th August referring to a report of 11th August. Police Surgeon stated she holds additional charge since June 2022, has done 99 exhumations, and that delayed dispatch of samples can cause false negative results. Commission has taken sealed Roznamchas into custody.

*6. Why is investigation delayed?*

Former IO said investigation is ongoing. Interim challan has still not been submitted.

*THE MOST CRUCIAL POINT – THE LAST MESSAGE:*

According to NCCIA, the last trading loss and the total trading demand is almost of the same amount. In one of the last messages, this line surfaced: *”Maybe this is the last or maybe tomorrow I may not be there.”*

The question is not only whether it is murder or suicide. The question is, even if it is not murder, then what circumstances, what pressure compelled towards suicide? Was that pressure financial, business, or something else? Whoever created those circumstances, if any, are the real culprits and must be brought to justice.

Like the entire nation, Minute Mirror also stands with the grieving family and is committed to immediate provision of justice. We have strong hope that with the wisdom, insight, experience and sagacity with which the Justice of the Commission is proceeding, nothing will remain hidden and no one will be able to influence the commission. And we firmly hope that the commission will certainly lay bare the facts before the nation, which the entire nation is anxiously waiting for.
