ISLAMABAD: An Islamabad court has granted bail to journalist Waheed Murad, who had been taken into custody by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) earlier this week on allegations of cyber terrorism and promoting criminal acts.
Judicial Magistrate Abbas Shah ordered the release of the journalist on bail after the FIA presented him in the court on completion of his two-day physical remand.
Initially, the court had set surety bonds at Rs50,000, however, Murad’s plea for a reduction was accepted, and the amount was lowered to Rs20,000.
This is a developing story and is being updated with more details.
