Hatian Bala: A resident of Gurthama, Chinari, a village in Jhelum Valley, Azad Kashmir, who traveled to Karachi for labor work, has been missing for the past nine months, leaving his family in distress.
Wife’s Plea – Threatens Suicide
The wife of the missing man, Kausar Jabeen, along with her four children, reached the District Press Club Hatian Bala, pleading for her husband’s safe return. Overcome with despair, she threatened to jump into the river along with her children if no action was taken.
“My Children Are Forced to Sleep Hungry”
Kausar Jabeen stated that her husband, Khalid Nazir Khilji, worked as a laborer in Daily Colony, Karachi, but she has not heard from him for the past nine months. Their financial situation has worsened drastically, and the children are suffering from starvation.
“We are struggling to survive, but now the situation has become unbearable. I am living like a widow, and my children are like orphans, yet no one is willing to help us.”
Authorities’ Negligence – An Appeal for Help
Kausar Jabeen revealed that she had approached the Jhelum Valley administration two months ago, requesting her husband’s recovery and temporary shelter for her children. However, no action has been taken so far.
She has appealed to Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir Chaudhry Anwar-ul-Haq, Chief Minister of Sindh, Federal Interior Minister, Chief Secretaries, IG Sindh, and IG AJK to intervene immediately and help recover her husband.
“If my husband’s whereabouts – dead or alive – are not confirmed, and if we are not provided with support, I will be forced to take my own life along with my children.”
The distressed family has also urged philanthropists to step forward and assist them in providing food and shelter for the suffering children.
Authorities’ Silence Raises Serious Concerns
The mysterious disappearance of a Kashmiri laborer in Karachi for nine months and the authorities’ inaction highlight a grave human rights issue. The governments of Azad Kashmir and Sindh must take immediate steps to recover the missing citizen and support his struggling family.
The Azadi Times is closely monitoring the case and urges the authorities to take immediate action to ensure justice for the missing citizen and his helpless family.
