The Anti-Terrorism Court at Central Jail Karachi on Tuesday extended the interim bail of actor Muneeb Butt in a kidnapping for ransom case registered by Airport Police. The actor appeared before the court during the hearing, after which the judge granted him continued legal protection while proceedings in the case move forward.
The case stems from a first information report filed on April 23 on the complaint of Mutal Khan. Investigators allege that Muneeb Butt was involved in the kidnapping of the complainant along with several other suspects. However, the allegations remain under investigation and no final determination has been made by the court.

According to details included in the FIR, the complainant was allegedly forced to transfer cryptocurrency from his account while being held by the accused. Investigators claim the digital assets were moved during the period of alleged captivity, making cryptocurrency transactions a central part of the ongoing inquiry.
Furthermore, the case record states that the complainant was later released in Karachi’s Korangi area after the alleged cryptocurrency transfer had been completed. Authorities are examining the circumstances surrounding the reported transfer and the sequence of events leading to the complainant’s release.
