4 min

Fashion designer and PTI activist, Khadijah Shah, has been granted bail in two cases of vandalism and arson that occurred on May 9, one at the Lahore Corps Commander House and the other at the Askari Tower in Gulberg. This decision was made by a two-member bench of the Lahore High Court, presided over by Justice Alia Neelam.

The cases of arson and vandalism had been registered against Khadijah Shah at Sarwar Road and Gulberg police stations. The court had previously reserved its decision on the bails of Khadijah Shah and several others involved in the cases.

Apart from Khadijah Shah, other suspects in these cases include Usman Sharif, Muhammad Shahbaz, Suleiman Qadri, and Arbaaz, and the court was tasked with deciding on the post-arrest bails of these individuals.

In addition to the Lahore High Court’s decision, the anti-terrorism court (ATC) of Lahore extended the judicial remand of Khadijah Shah and others who were arrested in connection with the Corps Commander House arson case until October 31. The case was presided over by Judge Abhar Gul.

During the hearing, the police presented Khadijah Shah and the other suspects before the court following the completion of their judicial remand, and the police requested an extension of the remand. The court accepted the plea and extended the judicial remand of Khadijah Shah, Alia Hamza, and others until October 31.

The Sarwar Road police had initially registered the case against these suspects. Additionally, the court sent Dr. Yasmin Rashid and Mian Mahmoodur Rasheed to jail on judicial remand in the Shadman police station arson case, adjourning the proceedings until October 31.

The legal proceedings surrounding these cases are ongoing, and the decisions taken by the courts play a pivotal role in the final outcomes of these charges against Khadijah Shah and the other suspects involved in the incidents of vandalism and arson on May 9. The complexities of the legal system are being navigated as the cases progress, and further developments may be anticipated as the legal processes continue.
