ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) has lodged an appeal in the Supreme Court (SC) against the acquittal of PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi in the ephedrine case.

The petition challenged the decision of the Lahore High Court (LHC), which had cleared Abbasi of charges on Oct 18.

The trial court had previously sentenced him to a life imprisonment.

The ANF seeks reexamination of the case, extending the legal proceedings for another fourteen days.
