Court discharges Ahmed Tanveer, co-accused in foreign woman’s kidnapping case

Ahmed Tanveer and Ehtisham were produced before a judicial magistrate, who discharged both suspects from the case on the complainant’s statement.

During the hearing, the complainant told the court that both men were not involved in the kidnapping and robbery incident and that a mistake had been made during their identification.

He said he had no objection if the court discharged the two suspects from the case.

Ahmed Tanveer was arrested in another case after securing bail in a separate case involving the alleged rape of a foreign woman.

The suspects were taken into physical remand three times in the kidnapping and robbery case. However, the complainant later told the court that both men had no connection with the incident and that their identification had been mistaken.

During the October 24 hearing, Ahmed Tanveer’s lawyer rejected claims that money had been offered to Diana, the foreign woman who was allegedly sexually assaulted.

The lawyer said the case against his client was undergoing judicial trial but had unfortunately been turned into a trial on social media.

He alleged that social media users were creating their own narrative and fabricating evidence.

He further said Ahmed Tanveer had been arrested in another case despite securing bail and that the new case was registered against him without justification.

The lawyer also claimed that a video statement by Diana supporting the accused’s innocence had already surfaced.
