KARACHI:

The District and Sessions Judge South has granted interim bail to Haleem Adil Shaikh in the case of rioting at Hassan Niazi's appearance in the court.

In an informal conversation, Haleem Adil Shaikh said, "The police have made baseless allegations against me. We supported a victim and thus did not commit any crime. A case was registered against me after 40 days."

According to the police, the case was registered in the city court police station on the complaint of sub-inspector Faisal Gul. The case included provisions for rioting, death threats and interfering in the government work.
