LAHORE: A special court for Control of Narcotics Substance on Saturday dismissed two petitions filed by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and MNA Rana Sanaullah seeking video evidence against him as claimed by government ministers at the time of his arrest and the return of his confiscated vehicle in the drugs case against him.
During the hearing, presided over by Judge Shakir Hassan, the court also dismissed a third petition filed by the prosecution seeking daily hearings of the case.
The PML-N leader’s counsel, Advocate Farhad Ali Shah, argued that a number of cases were underway in the courts but the prosecution only wished to speed up Sanaullah’s case.
Responding to the comment, the prosecution said Sanaullah had accused them of using delaying tactics which was why they wished to speed up the trial.
In its short order, the court dismissed all three petitions and adjourned the hearing till March 7. The court also directed the PML-N leader to be present at the next hearing for indictment.
On January 18, Sanaullah had filed a petition in court praying to release his vehicle on supardari. At the time, the court had reserved its verdict.
