Malir Police in Karachi have set up an investigation team to examine the deaths of five people whose bodies were found at a house in Gulshan-e-Hadeed. The team will look into forensic evidence, the personal relationships of Shahzaib, and how the property was bought.
The unit includes the DSP Bin Qasim, the DSP Malir City, an IT in-charge and two station house officers. Police said a notification about the team will be issued shortly.
Left-handed writing and friendships under review
According to the initial investigation, Shahzaib wrote with his left hand, a detail investigators will examine. Police will also record statements from his close friends and look into why some of them recently ended their friendships with him.
The mobile phones and pistol recovered from the house will be sent for forensic examination, police said. Samples will be analysed after investigators receive the initial medical report on Thursday.
Property purchase and scene footage to be checked
Investigators will determine when and from whom Shahzaib bought the house. Officials said footage recorded by police on arriving at the scene will also be reviewed. Further findings are expected as forensic results come in and statements are taken from people connected to the deceased.
