Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar requests return of belongings; court seeks response from prosecution.
Script Writer Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar has filed an application for the return of his belongings in the honey trap-blackmail case.
Judge Arshad Javed of the Anti-Terrorism Court heard the application of Khalilur-Rehman Qamar.
In the application, it was stated that the police had recovered Rs 240,000 and the registration book of the writer’s car from the accused.
“The accused had withdrawn money from my bank using my ATM. I request that my money and the car’s registration book be returned to me.”
The court issued a notice to the prosecution on the application for the return of belongings and has sought a response by September 28.
Khalilur-Rehman, along with the main accused Amna Arooj, co-accused Hassan Shah, and Rafiq alias Feki, are currently in jail on judicial remand in the honey trap and kidnapping for ransom case.
On July 15, 2024, renowned Pakistani script writer Khalilur Rehman Qamar was allegedly abducted and robbed in Lahore.
He reported the incident to the police on July 21, after being released following a ransom payment.
Qamar had allegedly been invited to Amna Arooj’s home under the pretense of discussing a drama project.
However, his lawyer claims he was abducted by armed men.
However, lawyer for Amna Arooj’s lawyer says that, Qamar’s manager initially contacted Amna under the guise of professional interest.
Qamar allegedly suggested that he could help Amna advance in the entertainment industry but only if she fulfilled his personal demands, according to the lawyer.
The lawyer further revealed that these interactions, including incriminating chats, are reportedly available on a mobile phone accessed by police officials, including DIG, DSP, and Investigation Officer Imran Yousuf.
Amna’s lawyer claims that Qamar had then insisted on another meeting, where he arrived intoxicated and pressured her for a physical relationship, threatening to leak photos if she refused.
Hasan Shah, identified as the alleged mastermind, then arrived and reportedly kidnapped both Amna and Qamar, though details of their ordeal remain unclear.
