Court rejects former MNA’s request of acquittal in Ephedrine case

A Control of Narcotics Substances court has rejected former Member National Assembly (MNA) Hanif Abbasi’s request of acquittal in Ephedrine quota case on August 28, 2014.

It is reported  from Rawalpindi that  Narcotics Control Court has dismissed Hanif Abbasi’s petition for his acquittal in Ephedrine quota case. During the hearing, the Anti Narcotics Force prosecutor argued that Hanif Abbasi obtained 500 kg of Ephedrine quota illegally which was not used to manufacture the medicine and was smuggled.

The court judge ruled that credible evidence against Hanif Abbasi and other accused is present and thus request of acquittal is rejected.

The court judge fixed September 2 for the indictment of all the persons nominated in the Ephedrine quota case.

Hanif Abbasi is the former Member of National Assembly and is member of Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz).
