LAHORE (Dunya News) – Police on Monday gave a clean chit to Pakistan cricket team captain Babar Azam in harassment case.
Additional Sessions judge Nauman Naeem took up the petition of a woman Hameeza Mukhtar against Pakistan skipper.
During the proceedings, the counsel of petitioner Hameeza Mukhtar sought time to submit documents in the court and said that the whole case is based on medical reports.
Barrister Harris Azmat, counsel of Babar Azam while appealing the court to reject the petitioner’s plea said that Azam is a national cricketer and hero, adding that Hameeza Mukhtar started black mailing the national cricket team captain in 2016 and police cleared Azam in the investigation.
Police also submitted an investigation report in the court which stated that the national cricketer was found innocent and the woman was levelling baseless allegations. The court should reject the petitioner’s plea.
Barrister Harris Azmat said that Azam s case is being covered by Indian media and the woman may have targeted the national cricketer again at the behest of someone.
