FAISALABAD: (HRNW) A court on Monday turned down a bail plea of a woman in a case related to torture of a minor maid in Faisalabad’s Eden Valley housing scheme.
The court approved 14-day judicial remand of the suspect, named Samina.
Over the course of the hearing, a counsel, representing the woman, contended before the court that a suspect was granted bail in the case a day earlier. Dismissing charges against his client, he said the minor maid’s statement is on record with no torture marks found on her body.
A prosecutor stated that the police didn’t get the girl medically examined to ascertain whether she was beaten up or not. He said the victim is a minor, due to which any statement could be elicited from her under duress.
The court summoned the record of suspect Rana Munir, who was granted bail against a surety of Rs100,000 the other day.
