Acting Chief Justice Aamer Farooq accepted the interim bail of Janjua against surety bonds worth Rs 2,00,000.

The petitioner had stated in his plea that allegations against him regarding the video-gate scandal were baseless. He prayed the court to grant him an interim bail.

The court accepted the request and also served notices of Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to seek reply on the matter.

It may be mentioned here that FIA had registered a first information report (FIR) against the all characters of video-gate scandal for blackmailing the judge.
