Court cancels case against al Qaeda suspect after no evidence found July 13, 2021 An anti-terrorism court directed the police on Monday to conduct an inquiry before lodging an FIR on the basis on an intelligence report by a federal agency. The ATC-XII judge also cancelled the case lodged against Asif Zaheer for allegedly being a fundraiser for proscribed militant organisation al Qaeda after no evidence was found against him during the investigation. Zaheer was booked by the Counter-Terrorism Department under sections 11-H, 11-N and 11-F(i)(ii) of the Anti-Terrorism Act on March 26, 2020 when he had already been in custody of a law enforcement agency.
