The court, while announcing its reserved verdict, stated that there was no evidence to support the allegations against the accused. The case, registered in 2020 at Chuhang Police Station on the complaint of NAB Deputy Director Muhammad Asghar, alleged that PML-N workers had pelted stones at police during Maryam Nawaz’s appearance before NAB in the Raiwind land case.
During the hearing, Additional Director NAB Chaudhry Asghar appeared in court and stated he had no objection to the dismissal report. Police witnesses, including SP Moazzam Ali, DSP Zulfiqar Ali Butt, and DSP Muhammad Khan, testified that there was no substantial evidence to proceed with the trial.
