KARACHI:
Police constable Noor Muhammad was acquitted on Friday of charges of raping a minor girl.
Traffic Police Constables Noor Muhammad and Bashir Ahmed were charged with kidnapping, raping, killing and throwing the body of a girl, Sana, into a manhole in Karachi.
They were sentenced to death by an anti-terrorism court after two witnesses Munir Ahmed and Mohammad Yasin, who were the neighbours of the accused, testified against them, as reported by Dawn.com.
The accused then appealed against the sentence in the Sindh High Court, as a result of which Noor Muhammad was acquitted while Bashir Ahmed's appeal was rejected.
