The trial court judge/judicial magistrate had issued non-bailable arrest warrants for Mr Qavi on Oct 12 after the court was informed by police that the cleric was not cooperating in the investigation into the model’s murder, however, Mufti Qavi secured pre-arrest bail application with the district and sessions judge the same day.
On Wednesday, the cleric appeared before District and Sessions Judge Chaudhry Ameer Ahmad, but left the court premises before the verdict reserved some time ago on his bail appeal was announced.
