“In light of all evidence, this is not kidnapping case,” SHC says.
KARACHI: The Sindh High Court (SHC) Wednesday allowed teenager Dua Zehra to decide where she wants to go, with her parents or husband.
According to court order, Justice Junaid Ghaffar said the court reached the verdict in line with the testimonies.
“In light of all the evidence, this is not a case of kidnapping.”

In the order, the court also said that it has decided to dispose of Zehra’s father’s — Mehdi Ali Kazmi — petition for her recovery as the case of his daughter was not of kidnapping.
For the production of Dua before the Lahore High Court later this week, the SHC said the Sindh Police is at liberty to produce it if required. But the judge said that “we, after production and statement of the alleged abductee Dua, are not inclined to issue any further directions to that effect.”
