Karachi
January 26, 2021
An accountability court on Monday acquitted seven persons in a 20-year-old reference pertaining to fake admissions to the Sindh Medical College after the prosecution failed to prove charges on them.
The National Accountability Bureau had booked a former controller of examination of Karachi University, Intisarul Haq, former programme coordinator Abdul Hadi Siddiqui, former administrative assistant Alauddin, then vice principal Prof Syed Naseeruddin along with some other employees over their alleged involvement in 38 fake admissions in the SMC in 2001-2002.
Accountability Court-IV judge Suresh Kumar pronounced his verdict which he had reserved after recording evidence and final arguments from both sides. He said that the prosecution failed to establish the allegations against the defendants; therefore, the court acquitted them by extending the benefit of the doubt to them.
