PESHAWAR: The Peshawar High Court (PHC) on Monday rejected the bail petition of two people accused of murdering eight people, including women and children, in the Badaber area.A single PHC bench comprising Justice Sahibzada Asadullah heard the petition. The bench granted bail to a facilitator of the accused.
The complainant’s lawyer, Abdul Fayyaz Advocate, informed the court that the accused, Rohullah, Farmanullah, and Qalandar, were charged with the murder of eight people, including four women and four children, over a property dispute.
The lawyer said Rohullah and Farmanullah were directly named in the case, while Qalandar was accused of facilitating the crime. The lawyer appearing for the accused said the accusations were baseless, adding that the suspects were not present at the crime scene.
After hearing arguments from both sides, the court denied the bail applications of Rohullah and Farmanullah but approved bail for Qalandar, who was charged with acting as an accomplice in the crime.
