    The Supreme Court of Azad Kashmir heard a case regarding the cancellation of bail that was granted to accused persons Zameer Hussain Shah by the Shariat Court. The Supreme Court concluded that the lower courts had exercised their discretion in an arbitrary manner and against norms of justice. While the trial had commenced, this was not a hurdle to cancelling bail. There were reasonable grounds to believe the accused had committed a non-bailable offense punishable by death, life imprisonment, or 10 years imprisonment. As such, the Supreme Court recalled the bail granted by the Shariat Court, directing that the accused persons be taken into custody and remanded to jail to face trial.
