LARKANA The Sindh government has constituted a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) to probe the mysterious death of medical student Dr Nosheen Kazmi at the girls’ hostel of Larkana university.
According to a notification, Senior Superintendent Police (SSP) Larkana will head the JIT consisting of two Station House Officers (SHOs) and five police personnel to probe Kazmi’s murder. The investigation team will submit a progress report into the murder case on daily basis to SSP Larkana.
Earlier Vice-Chancellor of the Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Medical University (SMBBMU) Larkana Professor Hakim Abro has ordered that all men at the university will undergo DNA testing to assist in the murder case of Dr Nosheen Kazmi.
Professor Hakim Abro has directed the registrar of the university to prepare a list of all men at the varsity and police will make arrangements for conducting all DNA tests.
The decision came after it emerged that one man is behind the deaths of two medical students – Dr Nosheen Kazmi and Dr Namrata Chandani – at the girls’ hostel in Larkana. The forensic report made a startling revelation indicating that the same man is behind the deaths of the two medical students.s
A forensic report issued by a Jamshoro laboratory said samples collected from both victims have matched with the DNA profile of one man. Samples obtained from Dr Nosheen’s body and clothes share “50% alleles” with a male DNA profile found in the Dr Nimrita case, it said.
Dr Nimrita Chandani, a 25-year-old dental student at the Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto (SMBB) Medical University, was found dead from her hostel room on Sept 16, 2019. Her death was declared suicide despite the disapproval of her family.
Two years later, the body of Dr Nosheen Kazmi, a fourth-year student at the same university, was found from the girls’ hostel. She also reportedly died by suicide.
