Babar Azam could be facing charges of blackmail and harassment pretty soon after a Lahore court directed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to file a case against the Pakistan cricket team captain on Thursday.

Babar Azam has been accused of blackmailing posing threats to and harassing a woman named Hamiza Mukhtar, who filed a complaint with the FIA.

The Lahore-based woman is the same person who had claimed last year that Babar Azam sexually exploited her, forced her to have an abortion and made false promises of marriage.

Mukhtar had approached the court which directed the police to investigate the matter but somehow the case was never registered back then.

Mukhtar has now filed a fresh complaint with FIA for the registration of an FIR against unknown callers threatening her of dire consequences in response to the litigation initiated against Babar Azam.

The Lahore court judge Hamid Hasan has directed the respondent FIA “to proceed further with respect to registration of the FIR against the culprits within the stipulated time following legal formalities”.

“The Honourable High Court in a connected case has already restrained the police from registering the FIR.

“The instant order has been passed without issuing a notice to Babar in violation of his fundamental rights of fair trial as guaranteed in the constitution.

“The order is prima facie against the law and will be assailed soon,” Babar Azam’s legal counsel Barrister Haris Azmat said.

Babar Azam is currently gearing up to leave for South Africa to play a series of 3 ODIs and 4 T20Is in the rainbow nation from April 2 to 16. The 35-member Pakistan squad will leave for Johannesburg on March 26.

After the South African tour Pakistan will fly to Bulawayo on April 17 for three T20Is and two Tests against Zimbabwe. The side is scheduled to return on May 12

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
