A missing person who was found dead in Peshawar was laid to rest in Togh Bala graveyard here on Saturday.
Hundreds of people including Muhammad Farooq, son of late Maulana Abdur Rasheed Ghazi, former administrator of the Lal Masjid in Islamabad, attended the funeral for the 35-year old Abdul Saboor.
Family sources said that Abdul Saboor, son of Zainul Abideen, along with his five brothers Abdul Basit, Abdul Majid, Abdul Qadoos, Abdul Shakoor and Abdul Baes used to run the bookshop named ‘Maktaba Madina’ in Urdu Bazaar Lahore. He used to supply copies of the Holy Quran to seminaries including Lal Masjid, the sources said.
Abdul Saboor along with his two brothers Abdul Basit and Abdul Majid, had gone missing four years back.
The body of Abdul Saboor was found dumped near the Haji Camp in Peshawar and was shifted to his village at night. He left behind a daughter and widow.
The sources said that Abdul Saboor had obtained a car through bank and it was later sold to someone. However, the same vehicle was used in a terror attack somewhere in Punjab, which apparently led to their arrest.
Lawyer Tariq Asad had already filed a case in the Supreme Court for their early recovery.
The intelligence agencies had confirmed to the Supreme Court that 11 missing persons including Abdul Saboor were under their custody and later they were shifted to the Adiala Jail. His two brothers, Abdul Basit and Abdul Majid, are still in the jail.
His family members have appealed to the chief justice of the Supreme Court and federal government to help release Abdul Majid and Abdul Basit.
