ATC Judge Saadat Khan Bazai conducted a hearing on the case where the police produced the fashion designer.

During the hearing, the investigation officer sought a remand of 14 days for forensic examination of her mobile phone as he claimed that the fashion designer had incited people through WhatsApp.

Shah’s lawyer Iqbal Shah contested the argument saying that the police thought of doing a forensic examination of Shah’s phone after six months.

After hearing both parties, the court approved a 3-day remand of the fashion designer and handed her over to the police.

A day earlier, Quetta police arrested Shah and sought an ATC in Lahore to approve a three-day transit remand.

In the application, the police said that they had obtained her arrest warrants from Quetta ATC.
