Farhan Ghani Freed After Complainant Withdraws Case
According to Farhan Ghani’s lawyer, the PPP leader was released along with two co-accused after the complainant, Hafiz Sohail, withdrew the case. He added that once a complainant withdraws a case, it is not necessary to produce the accused before the court.
He further stated that the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) – which had earlier granted physical remand of the three accused until August 30 – has not yet been formally informed of the release. The police’s investigation officer (IO) is expected to submit a release report to the ATC.
“The case was withdrawn by the complainant, and all three accused were released accordingly,” said the lawyer, confirming that Farhan Ghani and his two associates were no longer in custody.
