A bench of Lahore High Court (LHC) on Wednesday granted bail to Ahad Cheema in the assets beyond means case.
The court ordered Ahad Cheema, former director general of Lahore Development Authority (LDA), to deposit two surety bonds of Rs1 million each with the court.
The court had earlier reserved its decision on the bail petition.
Earlier, Ahad Cheema’s counsel told the court that the statements of 63 witnesses have been recorded out of a total of 210 prosecution witnesses so far. “A supplementary reference has also been filed on 21 December, 2020”.
Ahad Cheema has already been granted bail in the Ashiana Iqbal Housing case, the counsel said. The lawyer pleaded to the bench for granting bail to his client over lingering court proceedings.
