ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – An anti-terrorism court in Islamabad has dropped terrorism clauses in the Arshad Malik video scandal case, Dunya News reported on Monday.
The court said in its remarks that the case against former accountability judge Arshad Malik does not fall under terrorism. The decision was reserved on July 23.
Let it be known that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) vice-president Maryam Nawaz had unveiled a video clip last year in July in which judge Arshad Malik could be heard saying that there was “no proof of corruption against the deposed premier” in the December 24 Al-Azizia reference.
Subsequently, the Lahore High Court (LHC) dismissed Arshad Malik, who had sentenced ex-Prime Minister (PM) Nawaz Sharif, from his job over the controversial video scandal.
