Authorities of Adiala Jail (Rawalpindi) refused to accept the parcel for Zahir Zakir Zaffer, sent by the US embassy in Pakistan. The parcel was comprised of books, clothes, perfumes, and shampoo for Zahir Jaffer, the prime suspect of the Noor Mukadam case.
Arshad Warraich, the Superintendent of Adiala Jail when contacted to ‘The Nation’ told that the parcel was sent by the US embassy through the courier but the Jail administration refused to accept it and return the parcel to the embassy.
In addition to this, a letter was also jotted down to the US embassy notifying to use the channel of ‘Ministry of Interior’ for any parcel to be sent for any citizen facing the charges of murder.
While answering back to a query he stated, ‘The parcel was returned by the jail authorities last Saturday.’
