SSP Larkana rebuffed the notion that the police was playing foul or covering up in favor of one party. They stated that the police received evidence in a damaged condition.
‘Friends Damaged Evidence’
He said the deceased student’s room was crowded by the warden, her classmates, and friends before the police arrived at the scene. This could have compromised substantial evidence such as fingerprints, DNA, and other evidence on her clothes and in the room.
“Police party reached the scene two and a half-hours after the case was reported.”
He also rejected the blame of being under the influence of ‘someone’ to detrail the investigations.
