PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi jailed for life in ephedrine case

ISLAMABAD: An anti-narcotic court on Saturday sentenced PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi to life in prison in an ephedrine drugs case.

Abbasi, who was PML-N's candidate in Rawalpindi, was accused of misusing and selling 500kg controlled chemical ephedrine to narcotics smugglers.

Hanif Abbasi has been arrested from the courtroom after the verdict, Geo reported.

Judge Muhammad Akram Khan had reserved judgment in ephedrine case against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Hanif Abbasi.

The decision was reserved after his lawyer completed arguments in the court where the accused was also present ..

The judge said he would pronounce the judgement within the next three to four hours.

The judge on Friday rejected PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi’s request to extend the trial deadline in the case.

The judge decided to strictly follow the orders of the apex court and high court to conclude the ephedrine case today (Saturday).

Former MNA Hanif Abbasi and 10 others are accused in the ephedrine quota case.

Hanif Abbasi was accused of misappropriating 500kg of the controlled chemical ephedrine, obtaining it in 2010, and selling it to narcotics smugglers. All requests of Hanif Abbasi about delay in concluding the ephedrine case only by 10 days have been rejected.

Thanks GOD this case was registered back in 2012 otherwise yeh be negraan govt or saazish ka hisa bana dete :))

This low life man ruined the life of many.
 
I wish i could have see faces of N league supporter of this forum

He deserves this i heard alot of dirty things about him.
 
Now PML-N will get more sympathy votes, as you know in Pakistan majority sympathize criminals.

Establishment working for PML-N in full swing. :P
 
He introduced drug culture in the universities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi.
 
It's good he's being locked up however can you really imprison somebody for life?

In most western countries they have to give a time for when the sentence ends, so it's not uncommon to see 70-80 year sentences or even 200 year sentences which are essentially a life sentence but it's cause legally you can't give a life sentence.

I feel like 50 year sentence would be more politically correct than a life sentence.
 
Alhamdulillah that pathetic ***** is jailed for life. He is responsible for destroying so many innocents in Universities.

Its lenient punishment for the crime he did. according to the law it should be a death sentence.
becoz you just cant sell tons of ephedrine on streets.

By Pakistani law anyone with 10kg is given life sentence and here 500kg is involved.

Pretty sure they only have to specify when the prisoner will become eligible to apply for parole and not the duration the sentence. It's the same here, we just don't know the full details of this case.

Also, I'm positive life without parole sentences do exist in western countries as well. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

The accountability process was started in 2013. Its a long Game. anyone who supports terrorists or traitors, facilitate them, sympathize with them, by using social media or tv channels etc are going to be accountable.
They are going to roll all of them one by one.

Hanif Abbasi’s punishment for life imprisonment, under section 9 Control of Narcotics Substance Act,1997, is a result of a ‘lenient view’ taken by the Trial Court Judge on account of Abbasi being the partner/co-owner of Grays Pharma otherwise he would have been sentenced to death

Maybe Noora Hajj like naikea available for those that will meet him at the gates of the jail. Never has a life sentence been more deserved than by this buffoon.
 
Ephedrine ?

I believe in large quantities it can be used to make crystal meth.

Do some research and you will find meth is available easily in universities and colleges of Rawalpindi and Islamabad from last few years match the timeline and you will get your answer.
 
Our judiciary has become a complete joke.

The case lingered on for 6 years because the Anti Narcotics Force (ANF) kept on taking adjournments because their case was very weak.

On the contrary, Hanif Abbasi’s lawyer insisted for the case to move on. In fact, ANF itself asked for a date in August which was accepted.

However, Shahid Orakzai, an ISI lawyer, filed an application for the case to be dealt with before the election.

Out of the 7 convicted, Abbasi is the only one who has been punished. Furthermore, history has also been made today - for the first time ever in the history of this ill-fated country, a decision has been announced at 11 pm.

The strategy behind the timing of this verdict is to allow Sheikh Rasheed a clear path, because it was very likely that Abbasi would have won.

It looks impossible now, but it would be amazing if the fraud Sheikh Rasheed still ends up losing. This is shaping up to be the most farcical and rigged election in our history.

Why not just ban PML-N from taking part in the elections at all?

A complete disgrace.

Ephedrine is available over the counter as a nasal decongestant but it stimulates the nervous system when taken in large doses hence it can be used to get high. That's why here in the UK as a pharmacist I'm not allowed to supply more than 180mg of ephedrine without a prescription.

Sadly a lot of stressed out college students revising for exams will take shortcuts and resort to drugs to get them through their studies. This is seriously messed up.

I might be mistaken but under Pakistani law life imprisonment means 25 years.

I don't think it means 25 years but you are allowed parole after 25years. In Western countries it is life sentence without parole where you are never released I am not sure what it is called in Pakistan. But I agree with life sentence means a set number of years in judiical terms not till death.

Wow man everyone from the government is getting jailed. Who is going to build those motorways now?
 
So happy that this swine has seen his last day in the sun already. Neefa Podri going to jail brought me even more joy than his master going to jail.
 
Why would they jail him 2 days before elections?

Why would they protect him for 6 years is a much BIGGER question.

In your position of power, you made mockery of the law and Nawaz Sharif even appointed him as head of high cost Metro bus project despite knowing his involvement in such a serious case.

Abbasi overall is such a pathetic person that he deserved even worse punishment.
 
get ready to hear this is a saazish too

For those who are crying about Rao Anwar. Your point is fair.

But where were you when from last 6 years Neefa Poodri was walking freely in Pakistan???

Same is with Rao Anwar, he has been given bail but he is not release, his case is pending and will be decided in near future.

Neefa Poodri case took 6 years almost and you people never said a single word. So, you should show some patience in Rao Anwar case also.

Or as usual, you want different set of rules for PMLN? :))

Alos, Sheikh Rasheed was ahead in most surveys i have seen so far so hardly a conspiracy?

Lastly, this drug dealer Hanif was found involved in this terrible crime 6 years ago. Why did it take so long to move this case forward?? Why was this criminal made head of metro project???

No poll for NA-60: Supreme Court rejects Shaikh Rashid's plea

The Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday rejected Awami Muslim League (AML) chief Shaikh Rashid's plea for going ahead with polling in NA-60 after they were deferred by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) after a special court disqualified a candidate, PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi, in the ephedrine case.

The top court validated the Lahore High Court's (LHC) verdict to upheld the ECP's decision, on the basis that it is practically impossible to hold elections in NA-60 on Wednesday, July 25. According to the ECP, it would take a lot of time to print new ballot papers for the 700,000 voters residing in the constituency.

Abbasi was disqualified just three days ahead of the general elections. At the time of his conviction, all preparations for the polls, including printing of ballot papers inscribing his name, had been finalised.

Furthermore, he was the only PML-N candidate in the constituency as the party had not fielded any covering contestant in NA-60.

Subsequently, the ECP postponed the polling in NA-60 constituency following Abbasi's disqualification by the Control of Narcotics Substances (CNS) Court in Rawalpindi a day earlier.

As the ECP is "bound to provide a level playing field to all candidates [...] the general election in NA-60 is postponed and will be conducted after the scheduled general elections, along with other postponed elections," the commission had said.

Yesterday, Rashid — who otherwise would have enjoyed a virtual walkover in the absence of his main rival — had moved the Lahore High Court (LHC) against the ECP's decision. However, the LHC rejected his plea, prompting Rashid to move the top court.

LHC Justice Mustaqeem, while dismissing Rashid's plea earlier, had considered the possibility of printing new ballot papers, at which the ECP's lawyer informed him that it was out of question because it would take a lot of time to print new ballot papers for the 700,000 voters residing in the constituency.

The apex court heard Rashid's petition today, in which he had argued that the election could only be postponed by a returning officer (RO) if one of the candidates passes away. he further argued that the ECP had therefore no right to postpone the election for any other reason.

Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar had subsequently issued notices to the federal government and the ECP, seeking their responses to the petition. He had remarked that the petition was being heard to elaborate on the point Rashid had raised.

However, after hearing the facts of the matter, the chief justice eventually advised Rashid to wait and contest a 'fair' election instead of winning on a walkover, "not for himself but for the sake of voters".

LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Thursday suspended Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hanif Abbasi's life imprisonment sentence in ephedrine quota case and ordered his release.

A two-judge bench headed by Justice Aalia Neelum heard Abbasi's bail petition.

Anti-Narcotics Force had registered a case against Abbasi and others in June 2012 under sections 9-C, 14 and 15 of the Control of Narcotics Substances (CNS) Act for misuse of 500kg of ephedrine.

On June 22, a special anti-narcotics court sentenced Abbasi to life in the case.

LHC suspends Hanif Abbasi's sentence, orders release


LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Thursday suspended Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hanif Abbasi's life imprisonment sentence in ephedrine quota case and ordered his release.

A two-judge bench headed by Justice Aalia Neelum heard Abbasi's bail petition against his life sentence. On June 22, 2018, a special anti-narcotics court had sentenced Abbasi to life in the ephedrine quota case.

In his petition, Abbasi stated that the anti-narcotics court had overlooked important legal points in its decision. "Seven other suspects were released. The case was formed against the petitioner on political basis," the petition added and pleaded to the LHC to suspend the sentence.

Approving Abbasi's petition, the LHC suspended his life sentence and ordered his release.

Abbasi was arrested just four days before the general election in the country last year. A former MNA, Abbasi was to contest the 2018 general election from NA-60 Rawalpindi.

The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) had registered a case against Abbasi and others in June 2012 under sections 9-C, 14 and 15 of the Control of Narcotics Substances (CNS) Act for misuse of 500kg of ephedrine.

ANF officials claimed the substance was sold by Abbasi to narcotics smugglers, who used it to make 'party drugs.'

The trial had been ongoing in a CNS Court in Rawalpindi. The court had indicted Abbasi and the other accused, including his brother, in 2014.

Within 2-4 years these politically motivated bootified verdicts will be quashed at higher and Supreme Court level and this fake Accountability/political engineering will be exposed.

Nikkay Da Abba should learn and learn quickly.

What a farce Lahore High Court is :/ Pakistan will never progress with such lower court judiciary.
 
All recent Proceedings points in one direction , Presidential/centralised regulation of provincial acts. Pakistan need it and things moving in right direction.

The MAFIA in full flow, IK must use the ISI to destroy the mafia, do whatever it takes. The survival of the country is at stake.
 
Need someone to examine the bank statements of these judges
 
No doubt whatsoever that the LHC is corrupt to the core.
Serious investigation has to be undertaken in to the judges backgrounds, their actions and yes in to their bank statements.

A strong procedural process for selecting judges has to be put in to place which includes annual audits in to their income and expense.

This has to be implemented immediately.

He was falsely convicted and LHC must be applauded for not bowing down to this reign of terror and fascism.

The only way this which-hunting can be resisted is if the higher and lower judiciary stand firm.

LHC continues to show that there is hope for this country yet.

Whether he was falsely convicted remains to be seen. For now his bail application has been accepted the court continues to hear the appeals against his conviction. It really took 30 seconds of google to come up with what I wrote
