A sessions court in Karachi on Friday granted bail to prime suspects Natasha Danish in the Karsaz traffic accident case after an out-of-court settlement was reached with the victims’ family.
Suspect Natasha Danish was booked and arrested for recklessly driving an SUV and killing a man and his daughter in an accident on Aug 19.
While pronouncing the order on Friday, the court allowed the bail plea in view of an out-of-court settlement reached by the applicants with the legal heirs of the traffic accident deceased.
The court granted bail to Natasha in the sum of Rs100,000 surety. The session judge also approved bail of Danish Iqbal, the husband of prime suspect in the Karsaz accident case.
A copy of the affidavit has been obtained by ARY News which reads, “We have reached a settlement and have forgiven the accused. We forgive her in the name of Allah, who is the Most Merciful and Compassionate.”
The family submitted that they had no objection if the suspects were granted bail and released from prison in the present case.
The certificate also mentions that the accident was not “intentional” and that the heirs have “forgiven” the accused without any pressure.
“We have given this no-objection certificate without any pressure. What we have said in the affidavit is absolutely correct,” the affidavit read.
