The Sindh government has reversed its decision to take control of the administrative affairs of the Sarim Burney Welfare Trust amid allegations of child trafficking.
The Sindh government had earlier decided to take control of the trust’s affairs after the Federal Investigation Agency requested intervention due to the trust’s alleged involvement in smuggling children to the United States and other countries.
However, the Social Welfare Department has retracted its July 18th directive to take control of Sarim Burney Trust’s affairs.
The development comes amid allegations of child smuggling against Sarim Burney, who was arrested on June 6th at Karachi Airport on the request of the United States (US) Consulate.
