A senior counsel representing the parents of slain Wall Street Journal’s South Asia bureau chief Daniel Pearl on Tuesday submitted a DNA report in the Supreme Court to establish the fact that a body found in Karachi after the journalist’s murder in 2002 was that of the son of Judea and Ruth Pearl.
The DNA report conducted by the Armed Institute of Pathology, Washington DC in Nov 27, 2002 was furnished before the apex court by Advocate Faisal Siddiqui, who is representing Daniel Pearl’s parents, to lay to rest the impression that the body recovered after the murder was of someone else.
Advocate Siddiqui also told a three-judge SC bench headed by Justice Mushir Alam that the identity of the victim was confirmed through the DNA conducted after the body was recovered in Karachi.
