Murder accusation case on Asif Zardari: IHC approves Sheikh Rasheed’s bail application

Islamabad High Court has accepted bail application of former Federal Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed. It should be remembered that a case was registered against Sheikh Rasheed in Murree, in which the first bail has been granted.

Pakistan Awami Muslim League chief Sheikh Rasheed approached the Islamabad High Court for bail. It should be remembered that Sheikh Rasheed’s bail application was rejected by the Judicial Magistrate and the Sessions Court earlier.

The stand taken by Sheikh Rasheed in the petition was that the case was registered against Asif Zardari at the request of a third party for making a statement against him, and cases are being filed to target political revenge.
