ISLAMABAD: Lawyer Raja Irshad on Monday submitted reports of Military Intelligence (MI) and the Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI) to the Supreme Court in the case of disappearance of 11 prisoners from Adiala Jail.
Eleven prisoners, convicted for attacking the Pakistan Army’s General Headquarters in Rawalpindi and the ISI’s Hamza Camp, had gone missing from Adiala Jail, and four were later found dead.
The three-judge bench, headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, had served notices to the ISI and MI chiefs on January 25 to explain the circumstances behind the deaths.
Irshad, while talking to the media, said that the agencies were ready to have the postmortem of the dead prisoners done and to hold a forensic inquiry.
He added that the prisoners had died at the Lady Reading Hospital in Peshawar due to some illness, and said that the Raymond Davis saga was not connected with the disappearances.
The hearing of the case has been adjourned till February 9.
