A local court in Karachi has directed the investigation officer (IO) to submit an interim challan in the high-profile case involving alleged 'Cocaine Queen' Anmol, also known as Pinky. Meanwhile, another court has deferred its decision on the bail applications of her alleged facilitators.
Interim Challan Ordered
The judicial magistrate for District South, while hearing the murder case registered against Pinky, ordered the IO to submit the interim challan on Tuesday. During the proceedings, the IO requested additional time, stating that the challan had been forwarded to senior police officials for approval and would be submitted once cleared. The court granted the time but reiterated its directive for submission within the stipulated deadline. According to the prosecution, the scrutiny of the challan has already been completed, and the document has been handed over to the IO. The case was registered at Baghdadi police station on the complaint of Sheroz, a resident of the Lines Area.
Bail Verdict Deferred
Separately, the district and sessions judge for District South once again postponed the verdict on bail applications filed by alleged facilitators of Pinky. During the hearing, the IO submitted forensic reports of WhatsApp chats and video communications allegedly linked to the accused. The court adjourned the matter and postponed the decision on bail until June 10. Deputy District Public Prosecutor Arif Saitai opposed the bail pleas, arguing that the accused Zeeshan had declared a monthly income of Rs50,000, while bank account records revealed transactions worth millions of rupees. He further contended that the accused, Sohail-ur-Rehman and Zeeshan-ur-Rehman, are facilitators of Pinky and do not deserve bail.
