Lahore: October 1, 2016. (PCP) Today was the date of Nabeel Masih's case hearing was arrested on charges of blasphemy after posting photo of Khana Kabba on his Facebook page. The Voice team along with the Legal Panel was at Pattoki sessions Courts to argue the Bail, but due to some supplementary statements the case of Nabeel was still under investigation so the Court couldn't decide and adjourned the case until 8th October. Nabeel was brought from Jail in high security zone as the situation of the area was very tense, the complainant party was in the court with a mini mob of about 50-60 Maulvis and were seeking a chance to snatch Nabeel Masih from Police's custody. As Nabeel was in the high security zone and thus was in the custody of Elite force so nobody could touch him, this failure enraged the mini mob, and they started looking for a chance to grab the father and brother of the accused (Nabeel) and also started to create an atmosphere of dispute with the Lawyers of Nabeel Masih. But legal team got a safe way out along with the family of Nabeel and reached Lahore safely. The Voice's legal panel has decided to try to transfer the case because it is not at all safe to appear in the Pattoki courts which is the home for fundamentalists.
