The 4-year-old was presented for bail in the court of Additional Sessions Judge Sohail Anjum. Ahmed’s lawyer told the media that the case against his client was “blindly registered” by the police.
“The sentence imposed on 4-year-old Ahmed is 10 years imprisonment.” The lawyer demanded strict action against the Rawalpindi SHO Naseerabad police station and the investigating officer for registering the case.
