LAHORE: Qandeel Baloch’s father Muhammad Azeem once again blamed Mufti Abdul Qavi for the murder of his daughter.
Qandeel’s parents, Azeem and Anwar Bibi, reiterated their allegations against Mufti Qavi in the court of Judicial Magistrate Pervaiz Khan hearing the Qandeel’s murder case on Monday in Multan. Mufti Qavi was also present in the court.
Qandeel, a social media personality was murdered in 2016 by his brother Waseem allegedly in the name of honour. However, Qavi’s name had also been included in the case on the request of Qandeel’s father.
Qavi is currently under police custody as his plea for pre-arrest bail has been dismissed by the court earlier this month.
In today’s hearing Azeem said that he would not forgive anyone who was involved in his daughter’s murder.
He went on to say that the person behind Qandeel’s murder was Mufti Abdul Qavi.
However, Qavi denied all the allegations against him and said that he had done nothing illegal.
Investigating Officer Asif Shahzad assured the court that police was likely to get the results of a polygraph test conducted on Mutfi Qavi soon. He also requested to grant a three-day extension in the cleric’s physical remand.
Qavi’s lawyer maintained that the report of polygraph test had no legal value adding that no further extension in the remand was required.
However, the court allowed two-day extension in Qavi’s physical remand and adjourned the hearing till November 1.
