A Karachi court on Friday acquitted Natasha Danish, who was involved in the August 2024 Karsaz road accident, in a drug case against her, citing lack of evidence.
On Aug 19, 2024, a speeding Toyota Land Cruiser, driven by Danish, hit three motorcycles and another car on Karsaz Road, killing 60-year-old Imran Arif and his 22-year-old daughter Amna, as well as wounding three others.
The driver was arrested and booked on murder charges. Later, another case was lodged against her after medical reports confirmed that she was under the influence of methamphetamine (ice) at the time of driving.
In October 2024, Danish was acquitted in the murder case after a “compromise” pact between the parties.
On Friday, the judicial magistrate (East) heard the drug case against her, with Fawad Ali Kichi appearing as her counsel.
The court said the prosecution failed to prove the charges against the suspect.
