Court orders release of Tik Toker Nadeem Naniwala

LAHORE: Local court has ordered the release of Tik Toker Nadeem Mubarak, also known as Nadeem Naniwala, who was facing allegations of using an illegal number plate on his vehicle.

Police on Monday had arrested popular TikToker Nadeem Mubarak, for affixing a fake number plate, “IK 804”, on his vehicle.

On Thursday the court ruled in favour of Tik Toker Nadeem Naniwala, stating that there was insufficient evidence to support the charges brought against him.

The decision noted that the statement of recovery, which would have proven the allegations, was absent from the case record.

As a result, the court ordered the release of Nadeem Naniwala, rejecting the police’s request for a 14-day judicial remand. The police had sought to keep Mubarak in custody while investigations continued, but the judicial magistrate denied the plea. 

Naniwala had been booked in the case by Defense C police. 

According to the SHO of Defence, Lahore, Nadeem Nani Wala was caught during a routine check near Main Boulevard Defence, where the number plate on his car was found to be counterfeit. The police immediately took the TikToker into custody at the scene.
