A sessions court on Saturday dismissed a bail application filed by Atif Zaman in the DHA double murder case on the grounds that apparently there were sufficient evidences available against him.
The additional district and sessions judge of South IV at the judicial complex inside the Central Prison pronounced his verdict after listening to the arguments from the prosecution and the defence.
The judge observed that in the light of the arguments submitted by the prosecution and the complainant, it appeared that prime facie sufficient incriminating evidences were available against the accused; therefore, he was not entitled to bail.
