PHC grants protective bail to Bushra Bibi
The two-member bench, led by Justice Shakeel Ahmed, issued directives to the federal government and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to submit a report on the matter within two weeks. The bench was hearing Bushra Bibi's petition regarding details of the cases registered against her across various provinces.
The court also ordered that the petitioner not to be arrested in any case registered against her.
Bushra Bibi’s legal counsel informed the court that this application pertained to details of the cases against her, which have been registered in all four provinces. On the court's query, the counsel acknowledged that none were registered within Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), which was why she moved the court.
He also argued that if there are cases registered in other provinces, his client could seek protection from Peshawar. Justice Sahibzada Asadullah remarked that if there is no case in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the court could provide protection for Punjab, Balochistan and Sindh, as it has done previously.
Later, Bushra Bibi withdrew her application for a transit bail after she was granted a protective bail.
