Despite the circumstances of his death being unclear, his family immediately took away his body and asked to drop any investigations into the case, terming the matter a suicide.
However, it has been learnt according to the latest reports, that the police are planning to solve this mystery and an investigation into the case was launched on Monday. The family had told the police in writing that they do not want any legal proceedings about the cause of death, but the police will carry out their responsibility by opening a probe.
According to the details of the incident provided, Khanani was on a routine visit to ‘Saima Towers’ in Mohammad Ali society which is an under-construction building in the jurisdiction of Bahadurabad police station. Khanani was one of the owners of that building and he would often visit it to check the progress of work.
While he was there, he fell from the 8th floor of that building to the ground. “He entangled in electric wires before hitting the ground,” said Additional IG Karachi Mushtaq Maher.
Khanani’s partners immediately came to the site after hearing about his fall and took him to the hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. His family was informed and they reached the hospital within a short while and took his body home without letting police complete any medico-legal action.
The police are exploring all possible causes to his death and they have even brought in laborers who were present at the site, for questioning. CCTV footage from nearby areas is also being evaluated for possible clues.
