The Sindh High Court (SHC) granted bail to Natasha Danish, the prime suspect in the tragic Karsaz Road accident, in a separate drug case. She directed to submit surety bonds worth Rs. 1 billion, with the case now adjourned until the next hearing.
Earlier this month, a lower court had approved her bail in the Karsaz accident case on a bond of Rs. 100,000. However, her bail request for charges filed under the Narcotics Act initially rejected, only to be approved now by the SHC.
The Karsaz Accident: A Timeline of Events
On August 19, 2024, Natasha Danish was reportedly driving her Land Cruiser recklessly on Karsaz Road under the influence of drugs. This resulted in a horrific crash that claimed the lives of a father and his young daughter, with four others suffering serious injuries. Eyewitnesses quickly gathered at the scene and handed her over to the authorities. A case promptly registered, and Natasha was taken into custody.
The post-accident medical report revealed that Natasha had been under the influence of crystal meth, commonly known as “ice,” leading to additional charges under the Narcotics Act.
Victims’ Families Pardon Natasha
In a remarkable turn of events on September 6, 2024, the families of the accident victims submitted affidavits to the court, announcing they had forgiven Natasha for her actions. Citing religious beliefs and forgiveness for the sake of God, they expressed no objections to her bail, allowing the court to release Natasha on bond for the accident case.
Future Legal Proceedings
While Natasha has secured bail in both the Karsaz accident and the drug-related charges, her legal battles are far from over. The court’s decision to grant bail in the drug case has raised eyebrows, given the gravity of the charges involving dangerous driving under the influence of narcotics. However, the next hearing will determine the final verdict regarding the drug charges.
Conclusion
The Karsaz accident case continues to captivate public attention due to its tragic nature and the leniency extended towards the prime suspect, Natasha Danish. With the victims’ families extending forgiveness, the legal implications surrounding drug-related charges remain to be in the upcoming hearings.
