A Long and Arduous Search
Months passed with no word on Imran Riaz Khan’s whereabouts. His family, friends, and colleagues were left in anguish, desperately seeking answers.

The Lahore High Court (LHC) played a pivotal role in the search for Imran Riaz Khan, repeatedly pressing law enforcement agencies for answers.
