An Additional District and Sessions Judge (South) on Wednesday reserved verdicts on two key bail applications in a high-profile bank fraud case involving Rs530 million. The court is expected to announce its decisions later today. During the hearing, the court took up the bail petition filed by Atif Khan — husband of television actress Nadia Hussain — as well as the request for confirmation of Nadia Hussain's interim bail. Both matters were heard by the Additional Sessions Judge (South), who reserved judgment on both applications.
Actress Nadia Hussain, along with co-accused Faisal and Imtiaz, appeared before the court. All three accused are currently on interim bail. The court observed that the verdict on Atif Khan's bail and the confirmation of Nadia Hussain's interim bail would be delivered today.
Meanwhile, during the hearing, legal counsel for accused Imtiaz argued that the case was baseless and had been registered with malicious intent. He denied allegations that his client had issued any fake cheques. The lawyer added that Imtiaz had shared complete documentation, including emails and transaction records, with the relevant authorities.
The court postponed the hearing of bail applications filed by accused Faisal and Imtiaz to a later date.
