Appeal against Sanam’s acquittal withdrawn

ISLAMABAD:

The FIA on Tuesday withdrew its appeal against the acquittal of PTI worker Sanam Javed, leading to the conclusion of the case in the Islamabad District and Sessions Court.

The hearing, presided over by Judge Afzal Majoka, addressed the FIA's appeal to the duty magistrate's decision to discharge Javed from the case. During the court proceedings, FIA prosecutor Sheikh Amir appeared to present the agency's position.

Earlier, the Punjab Government, led by CM Maryam Nawaz, had challenged the Lahore High Court's decision to discharge Sanam from a Gujranwala case in the Supreme Court.
