LAHORE: Lahore Police have solved a blind murder case involving the recovery of a headless body from Badami Bagh, arresting the alleged killer who reportedly attempted to frame his step-brother by leaving a copy of the latter’s Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) at the crime scene.

SSP Investigation Lahore Muhammad Naveed Khan said investigators traced the suspect through modern technology and human intelligence after the discovery of a tortured body stuffed in a gunny bag in an empty plot near Usman Chowk, Badami Bagh.

The victim’s neck had been slit, and his body bore marks of torture. A CNIC copy found in a pocket initially misdirected investigators, while the unidentified body was shifted to a morgue for examination.

Police later recovered the victim’s severed head from Muridke on the alleged killer’s identification. The victim’s son, who travelled from Nowshera Virkan in Gujranwala district, subsequently identified him as his 56-year-old father, Shafiq, son of Munir Ahmed.
