ISLAMABAD: An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) Friday granted bail to Aleema Khan and Uzma Khan against surety bonds of Rs20,000 each. The siblings were arrested on October 4 in a case registered by Kohsar Police Station. They were detained for protesting amid Section 144 restrictions. Both sisters appeared before Judge Abual Hasnat Zulqarnain after the completion of their physical remand. On October 10, the ATC had extended their physical remand to two more days.
Niazullah Niazi, Ansar Mahmood Kiyani and other lawyers appeared in the court on behalf of Uzma and Aleema. Prosecutor Raja Naveed opposed the bail plea, saying a megaphone was recovered from the suspects, who used it to incite chaos among the party workers.
“There is a video of the suspects when they were arrested.” Niazi retorted and questioned the prosecutor’s statement on the sisters inciting chaos. There is not a single video of them inciting chaos, they are just being made a target for political revenge, Kayani said.
After hearing the arguments, the court granted bail to the two sisters for Rs20,000 each. PTI confirmed the bail approval in a post on X, quoting leader Zartaj Gul as saying: “Alhamdulillah, Khan Sahib’s two sisters have been granted bail, God willing my leader Imran will also be released.”
