The Islamabad High Court has approved the bail request of Ali Amin Gandapur, an aide to the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in a case related to the destruction of the judicial complex. Gandapur appeared in the Islamabad High Court accompanied by his lawyers, where his pre-arrest bail application in the case of damaging the judicial complex was considered and approved.
During the hearing in the anti-terrorism court, Ali Amin’s lawyer, Raja Zahoor, presented arguments stating that Ali Amin Gandapur was named in the FIR (First Information Report) but had no direct involvement in the incident. He was not present at the scene when the incident occurred, and there were 50 FIRs registered against him. Furthermore, he was not even allowed to reach the court.
After hearing the arguments of the defense counsel, the court granted bail to Ali Amin Gandapur on a surety bond of 50,000 Pakistani Rupees in lieu of pre-arrest bail.
The case pertains to an incident of violence and vandalism at the judicial complex, where Ali Amin Gandapur was accused of being involved. However, his legal team argued that he had no direct role in the incident and was wrongly implicated in the case. They highlighted that Gandapur was not present at the site when the incident occurred and that there was no evidence linking him to the destruction of property.
The decision to grant bail to Ali Amin Gandapur underscores the principle of justice and fair trial, ensuring that individuals are not deprived of their liberty without sufficient evidence against them. It also upholds the presumption of innocence until proven guilty, a fundamental tenet of the legal system.
The case has attracted significant attention due to Ali Amin Gandapur’s political affiliation as an aide to the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. His bail approval is likely to have implications for the ongoing investigation and legal proceedings surrounding the incident.
The judiciary’s decision to grant bail demonstrates a commitment to uphold the rule of law and ensure due process in legal proceedings. It reinforces the importance of a fair and impartial judicial system in safeguarding the rights of individuals and promoting accountability and transparency in governance.
As the legal process continues, it remains to be seen how the case unfolds and whether further developments emerge regarding Ali Amin Gandapur’s alleged involvement in the destruction of the judicial complex.
