The Peshawar High Court (PHC) on Friday directed the police to take immediate and effective measures for the recovery of 12-year-old Oman, who went missing from the Faqirabad area of the city, and to produce the child before the court at the next hearing. Chief Justice PHC Justice SM Atiq Shah, while hearing the case, also ordered Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Advocate General Sanaullah to submit a comprehensive report on the steps taken by police for the boy's recovery. The court adjourned the hearing until December 7. During the proceedings, the petitioner's counsel Fawad Afzal Safi Advocate, the Advocate General and police officials appeared before the court. The lawyer informed the bench that Oman had gone missing from Faqirabad and that his father had registered a report at the concerned police station. However, no information about the child had been received so far, nor had his recovery been possible. In its written order, the court directed the SSP Investigation to take all possible measures to ensure the early and safe recovery of the child and to make efforts to present him in court on the next date of hearing. The Advocate General was also directed to place on record a detailed report regarding the efforts being made by the police. Further proceedings in the case were adjourned until December 7.
