"Shah Mahmood Qureshi Granted Bail in May 9 Arson and Siege Case"

The bail application of Tehreek-e-Insaf Vice Chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi in the vandalism and arson case that occurred on May 9 has been approved.

During the hearing at the District and Sessions Court of Islamabad, Judge Haroon Shah considered the bail application presented on behalf of Shah Mahmood Qureshi. Representing the accused, lawyer Ali Bukhari argued that his client was neither present at the protest site nor made any statements endorsing the violent riots. He requested the court to grant bail on these grounds.

After both sides presented their arguments, the court concluded and approved Shah Mahmood Qureshi's bail application.

This development brings relief to Shah Mahmood Qureshi, as he can now be released from custody. The decision was made based on the arguments put forth by the lawyers representing both parties. However, it's important to note that the granting of bail does not imply the conclusion of the legal proceedings; it allows the accused to be temporarily released while the case continues.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi's approval for bail marks a significant step in the legal process, and further updates regarding the case are expected as it progresses.
