Muahmmad Ali stated there was no security in the metro station or a gate to keep people out.
KE officials, on the other hand, claimed the incident happened when Faizan attempted to steal wires from the substation.
Meanwhile, Faizan's uncle announced to the media that his two sons were with Faizan when the incident took place. “Faizan and my kids walked close to the subway tower and got into the nearby pool water that conducts electricity,” he said, adding that his cousin died on the spot.
He said that when he arrived at the metro station after being made aware of the incident, onlookers advised him to stay away as the electric power was being distributed around the station. He added that everyone knew the incident was due to KE's negligence.
On behalf of Faizan's uncle Muhammad Fayyaz, a case was filed against four KE officials, including CEO Moonis Alvi, in accidental murder sections. Other nominated officers include KE Sales Director Amir Zia, senior IBC Defense Security Officer Faheem, and Assistant Chief Defense Officer Awais.
