Developing
During a hearing, the court noted that Munir Khan, who is in his 70s and was produced via video-conferencing last month, was not in a position to remain present for the trial. The police had said that it had received complaints from over 100 individuals about worsening health conditions, with one complainant alleging that his wife lost her eyesight after using one medicine prescribed by Khan as eyedrops.
On Monday, the special court said it will proceed to frame charges against three of his co-accused in the case filed by the Enforcement Directorate in 2013. The court verified his health condition and noted he is “very old and in a precarious condition.
The court said it will proceed against the three others, directing them to remain present for framing of charges on September 11. Special Judge SV Sahare said, “Trial cannot proceed against accused number 1, in view of his medical and physical condition.
