Tando Muhammad Khan, Sindh — In a heartbreaking incident that has sparked public outrage and calls for justice, 35-year-old Warjang Kohli, son of Mano and a resident of Sheikh Bharki in District Badin, allegedly died by suicide after facing financial betrayal. But growing evidence and eyewitness accounts suggest this may not have been a suicide — it was a cold-blooded murder.
According to initial reports, Warjang had been demanding the return of PKR 500,000 that he had given to a landowner, Qaim Khani, a resident of Tando Jam. On the day of the tragedy, Warjang reportedly went to the Tando Muhammad Khan Press Club to protest against Qaim Khani’s refusal to return his money.
Shortly after, his lifeless body was found hanging from an electric pole on the main Phuleli Bridge in the city. Locals were quick to point out the contradictions in the suicide claim. Due to ongoing load shedding in the area, there was no electricity at the time, making the circumstances suspicious. Witnesses who helped lower Warjang’s body noticed a rope tightly tied around his neck — a chilling detail that further questions the narrative of suicide.
Residents of the area believe that Warjang was lured and murdered, and the scene was staged to resemble suicide. Many claim that Warjang’s relentless demand for justice and money from the influential landlord led to his death. They allege that Qaim Khani and his associates were behind the brutal act in order to silence Warjang and avoid repaying the debt.
Warjang’s death is not just a personal loss for his family; it is a glaring reflection of how power and influence can suppress the poor and marginalized. The incident has fueled anger and grief among locals who are demanding an immediate and transparent investigation.
We strongly appeal to the SSP of Tando Muhammad Khan:
-
Register a case of murder.
-
Arrest the accused Qaim Khani and his accomplices.
-
Ensure a fair and thorough investigation to bring justice to Warjang Kohli and his family.
Warjang’s voice must not be silenced in vain. Justice for his blood is not just a demand — it is a moral obligation.
