The District Management Group (DMG) Association, Islamabad Chapter has demanded of the government to hold a judicial inquiry by a High Court judge into killing of one of its members and Additional Registrar Supreme Court Sayed Hamad Amjad Raza.

All serving and retired Federal Secretaries, Additional Secretaries and Assistant Commissioners attended the meeting. They condemned the wanton murder of 37-year old Hamad Raza, who was considered one of the most upright, honest, brilliant and loveable member of the elite DMG and felt writ of the government has been eroded.
The officers felt dejected, anguished, threatened in the wake of present state of law and order apprehending that it was becoming increasingly impossible for them to perform their duties conscientiously, legally, and honestly.
The DMG association formed a two-member committee to monitor and pursue the murder investigation by police and decided to wear black bands throughout the country.
The DMG serving and retired officers are also holding a national reference for Hamad to comfort and look after welfare of the bereaved family. The DMG associations of Lahore, Peshawar, Karachi and Quetta chapters also scheduled similar condolence meetings.

Taking suo motu notice of the murder of the court officer, Chief Justice Rana Bhagwandas has nominated two senior judges of the Supreme Court, Justice Javed Iqbal and Justice Abdul Hameed Dogar, to examine the reports, monitor investigation and pass appropriate orders on judicial side, since the incident directly related to the apex court.
