The personal mobile phone and laptop of the accused were used in the occurrence as the written transcript of Gill’s statement given to a TV channel was sent to him on WhatsApp by someone, it was stated. Moreover, it also seeks to get the names of others allegedly involved in the case by handing over the PTI leader to the investigating officer to probe the case further. It was argued that the judicial magistrate “did not determine the gravity of the offense and rejected the police request for physical custody and sent the nominated accused in FIR to judicial custody without considering the police request of merits.” The petition highlighted that the review appeal was dismissed on the basis of technicalities and that a “case must be decided on merits rather than technicalities.”
Meanwhile, an Islamabad district and sessions court issued notices on Saturday to the investigating officer and prosecutor on the post-arrest bail plea of Shahbaz Gill. Additional Sessions Judge Adnan Khan has issued notices for Monday, August 15, seeking responses from the investigating officer and prosecutor on the plea. According to the petition filed by Gill’s counsel, the incumbent coalition government had filed false cases to “settle scores” with the PTI, and that their “false FIR” was filed to achieve political objectives.
