Earlier, an Additional District and Sessions Judge (West) heard the case related to the arson of a water tanker, approving his bail against a surety bond of Rs100,000.

Afaq Ahmed was previously facing two cases under the Anti-Terrorism Act, registered at Landhi and Awami Colony police stations.

After securing bail in those cases, he was re-arrested by Surjani Police in connection with the tanker-burning incident.

With his latest release, the MQM-H leader has now secured bail in all pending cases, marking a significant legal victory for him and his party.
