Karachi's district and sessions court acquitted alleged drug queenpin Anmol alias Pinky on Friday in two narcotics cases. The first case, registered with the Counter-Terrorism Department in 2018, and the second, registered at Gizri police station in 2021, both resulted in her acquittal. Anmol, who had been labeled a proclaimed offender in both instances, had sought acquittal through Section 265-K of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
She participated in the hearing via video link, and the court found her innocent, citing insufficient evidence. The court also ordered her release from jail, should her presence not be required in other cases. Anmol's brother, Nasir, was already acquitted in the 2018 case. A sessions court acquitted her in three narcotics cases at Karachi’s Gizri police station in August.
Anmol's arrest was reported in May, linked to drug possession and an unlicensed weapon case at Karachi’s Garden police station. The arrest gained public attention after a video of her being escorted to court without handcuffs circulated on social media.
