Lahore: The accused in the murder of constable Kamal murder case has been granted post-arrest bail by the court.
Kamal was shot dead amid a police raid on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers’ house in Model Town.
According to details, the 60-year-old Sajid Hussain who reportedly shot constable Kamal has been granted bail by the court on Saturday. He was granted bail after submitting Rs100,000.
The accused’s attorney Farhad Ali Shah argued in the court that Sajid is innocent and he should be granted bail. He fired at the policeman thinking that he was a robber trying to break into his house, the attorney claimed. The killing of the constable was a pure misunderstanding, the lawyer argued.
