New revelations have surfaced regarding the murder of Mustafa Amir, who went missing from the Defense area of Karachi on January 6. Investigators have disclosed that the conflict leading to his death arose from a dispute involving a girl.

According to investigative officials, Mustafa and the accused, Armaghan, were friends who became embroiled in a heated argument on New Year’s Eve over the girl.

Following their altercation, Armaghan allegedly threatened both Mustafa and the girl.

On January 6, Armaghan reportedly called Mustafa and assaulted him. Meanwhile, the girl, identified as Marsha, fled the country on January 12.

Authorities have emphasized the importance of her testimony in the case and are attempting to contact her through Interpol.

After the discovery of Mustafa’s body, murder charges have been added to the case. The Hub police notified Karachi police about the body, which was subsequently handed over to Edhi after DNA samples were collected.

According to the report, the DNA matched that of the victim’s mother.

Murder charges have been added to the case following the discovery of the body, police said.

Further investigations revealed that another suspect, Shiraz, worked for Armaghan and was involved in the planning and concealment of the murder. The police are expected to seek a remand for Armaghan in court.

In a press conference on Friday, Crime Investigation Agency Deputy Inspector General (CIA-DIG) Muqaddas Haider, said that the case was handed over to the CIA after Amir’s mother received a ransom call on January 6. He explained that the victim’s body was found in a burned vehicle near the Dhoraji police station in Balochistan’s Hub district.

Haider revealed that Shiraz confessed that Armaghan lured Mustafa to his home, where he was brutally beaten with an iron rod for three hours. After rendering him semi-conscious, they taped his mouth and transported him to a location near Dhoraji, stopping the car two kilometers away.

When they opened the trunk, Mustafa was still alive. Armaghan then poured petrol on him and set him on fire from a distance.

According to Shiraz, the suspects walked for three hours without a lift before paying a pickup truck driver Rs2000 to reach Four Star Chowrangi, from where they took a rickshaw back to Defence.

After a police raid, Armaghan sent Shiraz home to make a video, but Shiraz fled in fear of the police and did not record anything.

Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah on Friday raised concerns regarding the court’s decision not to grant physical remand of the suspect in the Mustafa murder case to the police.

This week, the Sindh High Court ordered the registration of a case against the police team that conducted a raid on the bungalow of Armughan on February 8.

The court has ordered the formation of a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) for a comprehensive investigation. The arrested suspect, Armughan, was sent to jail on February 10.

Authorities reported on Friday that the charred remains of Mustafa Amir, a young man who went missing from Karachi’s Defence area on January 6, were found near Hub Chowki. His body was located in the trunk of his own car, which had also been set on fire.
