Worst Serial Killer of Pakistan
From Predator to Serial Killer: Javed Iqbal’s Reign of Terror
In the bustling streets of Lahore, Pakistan, a chilling tale unfolded in the summer of 1999.
It all began with the disappearance of young souls, like Faisal Razzaq, a nine-year-old boy who left his home to work long hours folding cardboard into paper boxes. His parents never saw him again. Weeks later, 13-year-old Shakeel Hassan didn't return from school, and Faraz Khan vanished during a quick errand to buy flour.
But these were just the first notes of a haunting story. Tasleem Ullah, Abdul Majeed, Zeeshan Nazir, Dilawar Hussain, and many more teenagers from struggling families joined the ranks of the missing.
Among them was Ejaz Muhammad, fondly called "Kaka," and his brother, who would work as massager , wandering the streets with colorful bottles of ointment.
In October, Kaka and his brother were lured by two boys in the gardens of Minar-e-Pakistan, a historic site. The promise of double pay for a massage from their "boss" led them down a narrow lane to a house numbered 16-B on Ravi Road. There, Kaka met Javed Iqbal, a small, bespectacled man with neatly parted hair. It was the last time anyone saw Kaka alive.
