KARACHI – Dania Shah, the third wife of late televangelist Aamir Liaquat, on Monday has filed a bail application at a local sessions court, days after court sent her to jail on judicial remand in a case related to controversial videos.
In the petition, Shah’s counsel maintained that the case filed against Aamir’s widow is fabricated, with an aim to deprive her of her right to inheritance.
Meanwhile, the local court sought an answer from Federal Investigators and the hearing was adjourned till December 20.
On Saturday, a local court sent Dania Shah to jail on a 14-day judicial remand in the case of filming and subsequently leaking private videos of her husband. Judicial Magistrate District East rejected FIA’s request for Dania’s physical remand and sent her to prison on two-week judicial remand.
FIA produced her before the district magistrate who denied FIA’s request for physical remand and further rebuked officials for producing the suspect late in the court. The judge served a show-cause notice on the investigation officer, as the suspect was supposed to be produced before the court within 24 hours of arrest.
The investigation officer was also questioned for not getting transit remand of the suspect ahead of shifting her to Karachi from Lodhran.
