GBP Order Impartial Probe into Piar Ali’s Alleged Suicide Case

Gilgit, Gilgit-Baltistan: Inspector General of Police Gilgit-Baltistan Dr. Akbar Naseer Khan has directed the Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of the Gilgit Range to conduct a transparent, impartial and comprehensive investigation into the alleged suicide case of Piar Ali, son of Muhammad Shah Jahan, a resident of Muhammad Abad, Danyor.

According to a statement issued by the Gilgit-Baltistan Police spokesperson, Piar Ali was employed as a driver with Piar Ali Educational Services.

Following the IG’s instructions, police are examining all aspects of the case to establish the facts and determine the circumstances surrounding the incident. The police have stated that if anyone is found responsible for wrongdoing during the investigation, strict legal action will be taken against them in accordance with the law.

The police spokesperson reiterated the department’s commitment to ensuring that the investigation remains transparent, impartial and comprehensive.

Calls for Justice and Employee Welfare

The case has also prompted calls for the administration to take employee welfare, workplace concerns and the dignity of public and private sector workers seriously.

There have been appeals to the Chief Minister of Gilgit-Baltistan to take notice of sensitive cases involving employees and ensure that any concerns raised are addressed through fair and effective procedures.

Advocates for employee welfare emphasise that when a worker is reportedly experiencing mental pressure or workplace difficulties, the relevant authorities should listen to their concerns, establish the facts and take appropriate steps to address any problems.

They have stressed that authority carries a responsibility to protect people's dignity, uphold their rights and provide a supportive working environment.

An impartial investigation is essential to establish the facts of the Piar Ali case. Any allegations of misconduct or negligence, if raised, should be examined through due process rather than assumptions or unverified claims.

The administration and relevant institutions are being urged to ensure that employees' rights, dignity and well-being remain a priority.

Piar Ali Case: Danyor Driver’s Death Raises Workplace Harassment Concerns

DANYOR, Gilgit-Baltistan

Piar Ali, a driver associated with Aga Khan Education Services and a resident of Danyor, has reportedly died by suicide. The circumstances surrounding his death have raised serious concerns about alleged workplace harassment and the need for a transparent investigation.

According to claims reportedly made in a video message recorded before his death, Piar Ali accused five office staff members of subjecting him to severe mental pressure and harassment. These allegations have not been independently verified, and the individuals concerned have not been established as responsible for his death.

Calls for a Transparent Investigation

Piar Ali’s death has left his elderly mother, wife and two young children facing a profound personal loss. The tragedy has prompted calls for the relevant authorities to investigate the allegations carefully and establish the facts.

Workplace harassment and intimidation are serious concerns that require appropriate attention from employers and law enforcement agencies. Every employee deserves to work in an environment where their dignity, safety and rights are respected.

The relevant authorities and institutional management are urged to examine the contents of the reported video message, investigate the allegations against the individuals named or implicated, and hear all relevant parties before reaching conclusions.

If evidence establishes that any individual engaged in harassment, misconduct or other unlawful activity, appropriate action should be taken in accordance with the law and due process.

Justice and Accountability

The loss of a human life demands a sensitive, impartial and thorough response. Investigators should establish the circumstances surrounding Piar Ali’s death and determine whether any workplace-related factors contributed to the tragedy.

Shyok Times calls for a fair investigation that respects the rights of all parties, provides clarity for the bereaved family and ensures accountability wherever wrongdoing is established.

The central demand is clear: investigate the allegations transparently, protect employees from workplace harassment and ensure that justice follows the evidence.

Editorial note: The allegations concerning workplace harassment remain unverified. No individual or institution should be considered responsible without evidence and due process.
