KARACHI:  A local court in Karachi on Friday acquitted Anmol, also known as Pinki, in two additional narcotics cases registered in the city, citing insufficient evidence against the accused.

The latest verdict brings the total number of cases in which Pinki has been acquitted to five out of the 22 cases registered against her, according to the available information.

The two cases were registered with the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) in 2018 and at the Gizri police station. Following the court’s decision, the judge directed the police to release Pinki from the women’s jail if she was not required in connection with any other criminal case.

At the beginning of Friday’s hearing, Pinki was presented before the Additional District and Sessions Judge (South) through a video link. The proceedings concerned the two narcotics cases in which the court was required to examine the evidence and arguments presented by both sides.

After hearing the prosecution and defence, the judge concluded that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the charges in the two cases and ordered her acquittal.
