KARACHI: A local court in Central Prisons Judicial Complex Wednesday acquitted Chairman Muhajir Qaumi Movement Affaq Ahmed on production of insufficient evidence.

Aftab Ahmed in his statement given to police said the Chairman Muhajir Qaumi Movement Affaq Ahmed handed over the above arms to the latter for hiding and use when required.
Aftab Ahmed was later released on bail and then he went in hiding and he is still at large.
Today the court acquitted Affaq Ahmed on having insufficient evidence.
