Court rejects Afghan official's bail application
A lower court in Peshawar rejected a bail application of an Afghan government official on Saturday who was caught with 'one kilogramme of heroin' and 'fake Pakistani currency' on November 5. The Crimes Investigation Department (CID) police arrested Syed Abdullah Bacha, a Peshawar-based acting Afghan trade commissioner. Additional District and Sessions Court Judge Mehmoodul Haq rejected the official's bail. A CID police official told Daily Times that Mr Bacha had been 'under observation' for his 'dubious activities' and on November 5 he had been stopped on the main Jamrud Road and drugs and fake Pakistani currency had been confiscated from his possession.
