KARACHI: Accused in drug smuggling case Anmol alias Pinky along with co-accused was produced before Malir and Central District courts.
The hearings involved drug recovery allegations, remand requests, and dramatic statements from both sides. Courts; however, reserved decisions on physical remand applications.
Special Magistrate in Malir Court ordered the accused to be sent to jail in a drug recovery case. The court also rejected the police’s request in a case registered at Sachal Police Station.
During proceedings, the court was told that drugs were recovered from a bucket in accused’s house on identification provided during investigation. The court later reserved its decision on physical remand request.
Co-accused Zeeshan and Sohail were also produced. The Investigating Officer (IO) stated that transactions worth cores had been traced.
Accused Pinky claimed in court that she was picked up from Lahore and that false cases were being made against her. Co-accused told the court they were brothers and ran an Easy Load shop.
The IO requested physical remand to continue further investigation. The prosecution announced it would challenge the Judicial Magistrate Malir’s decision and file a criminal revision, according to Acting Prosecutor General Sindh Muntazhar Mehdi.
At the Central District Court, accused Pinky was produced in additional cases. The court questioned remand status, including whether prior remand had already been granted in earlier cases.
The IO again requested physical remand, citing ongoing drug-related investigations.
The court noted that previous accused in a related case had been acquitted, while proceedings continued in others.
