Afaq Ahmed Granted Bail, Expected to Be Released Today

Muhajir Qaumi Movement (MQM-H) Chairman Afaq Ahmed has been granted bail in a third case, paving the way for his release from jail by this evening.

The Karachi Additional District and Sessions Judge (West) heard the case related to the burning of a tanker in Surjani Town, where the court approved Ahmed’s bail and ordered the submission of surety bonds worth Rs 100,000.

Legal Proceedings Against Afaq Ahmed

🔹 Two previous cases under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) were registered against Afaq Ahmed at the Landhi and Awami Colony police stations.
🔹 After securing bail in both ATA cases, he was re-arrested by Surjani police in the tanker burning case while still in Central Jail Karachi.
🔹 With bail now granted in this latest case, Ahmed is set to be released today, according to his lawyer Javed Chhatari Advocate.

Ahmed’s arrest and legal battles have been closely watched, given his political past and MQM-H’s role in Karachi’s political landscape. His release may impact the city’s political climate in the coming days.
