LAHORE: A special court for narcotics control on Saturday adjourned the hearing of a drug recovery case against Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah until Nov 19.
The minister did not attend the hearing due to official responsibilities in Islamabad and sought a one-time exemption from personal appearance. The court accepted the request and adjourned the hearing.
In July 2019, the Anti-Narcotics Force arrested Mr Sanaullah and claimed to have recovered 15kg heroin from his vehicle. An FIR was subsequently lodged under Section 9(c) of the Control of Narcotic Substances Act, 1997.
