Karachi court frames charges against 'drug queenpin' Pinky in murder case

A sessions court in Karachi on Tuesday indicted Anmol alias Pinky in a murder case registered at Baghdadi police station.

Jail authorities produced the accused before the District and Sessions Court South through a video link.

The court formally framed charges against Anmol, who pleaded not guilty and denied the allegations.

The court summoned prosecution witnesses on September 3 to record their statements.

According to the case record, police had removed the murder charges from the final charge sheet and instead included charges of qatl-bis-sabab (manslaughter).

The prosecution had recommended keeping the case pending until the collection of evidence under the qatl-bis-sabab charges.
