Money laundering: SHC grants bail to accused

Due to medical reasons

KARACHI: The Sindh High Court summoned answers from deputy attorney general, Federal Investigation Agency prosecutor and jail officials by November 7 over bail plea of suspect Hammad Raza, involved in money laundering scandal worth billions of rupees. A two-member bench heard the bail plea. Advocate Shaukat Hayat argued that the bail for Raza, who had been arrested and kept in Landhi Jail in the money laundering scandal, should be approved as he required medical facilities given that he had fallen down in jail. The court directed that Raza be provided with medical facilities.
