Applicant/accused
Abdullah Afridi
son of Yaqoot Khan, seeks protective bail in FIR
No.13/2025, registered at P.S. Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi for offence under sections 3/4 of the
Anti-Money Laundering Act, 2010. Learned counsel for applicant submits that
applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this case due to
mala fide intentions and ulterior motives; that applicant/accused is a law
abiding citizen and he intends to surrender before the concerned Court but he
feels apprehension of his arrest at the hands of police in order to humiliate
and disgrace him, hence he needs some protection to enable him to appear before
the Court concerned.
Without touching the merits of the case, protective bail is granted to
applicant/accused above named, for a period of five (5) days from today, subject to furnishing solvent surety in
the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees twenty five thousand) and
P.R bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Nazir of this Court.
Applicant/accused is directed to surrender before the trial Court concerned in
the aforesaid period and join the investigation/trial forthwith. This order
shall cease to have its effect after expiry of five days from today or whenever
applicant/accused surrenders before the trial Court, which one occurs earlier.
It is made clear, in case, applicant/accused fails to surrender before the
trial Court in the aforesaid period, his bail bond shall stand automatically
forfeited.
The
instant criminal bail application is accordingly disposed of.
