KARACHI: Additional District and Sessions Judge Shahid Ali Memon rejected the bail of the accused Natasha in the drug case in the Karachi Karsaz accident.
On August 19, a speeding Toyota Land Cruiser, driven by Natasha, had hit three motorcycles and another car before overturning. Sixty-year-old Imran Arif and his 22-year-old daughter Amna were killed in the accident, while three others were wounded.
Natasha, who has already been granted bail in the main case in lieu of a surety bond of Rs100,000, is presently in jail on judicial remand. Two cases had been registered against the suspect at Bahadurabad police station in Karachi.
A sessions court in Karachi had last Friday granted bail to her and her husband after the counsel for the victims’ family said that they had pardoned them and were no longer interested in pursuing the case.
