KARACHI: The family of Shahzeb Khan on Monday decided to pardon the culprits responsible for their son's death, DawnNews reported.
The victim’s father, DSP Aurangzeb Khan and his mother Ambreen Aurangzeb have also requested for the release of the four perpetrators involved.
Shahzeb Khan, 20, was gunned down on the night of December 24, 2012 by Shahrukh Jatoi, who was accompanied by his friends, Siraj and Sajjad Talpur.
The young men had argued after the Talpur’s manservant, Ghulam Murtaza Lashari, had teased Khan’s sister.
An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Karachi had sentenced the main accused, Shahrukh Jatoi, to death along with Siraj Talpur, while life-long jail terms had been given to Sajjad Talpur and Ghulam Murtaza Lashari on June 7.
