LAHORE: A banking court on Saturday granted bail to Hamid Zaman, one of the PTI\u2019s founding members, in connection with the prohibited funding case. Banking crimes court Judge Aslam Gondal granted bail to Zaman, with the order to deposit surety bonds worth Rs one million. Earlier, Zaman\u2019s counsel Khawaja Haris argued against allegations of prohibited funding, adding that all relevant record has been with the FIA. \u201cNo recovery made from the accused,\u201d the counsel said. The FIA prosecutor pleaded to the court to dismiss the bail petition of Zaman. The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had arrested Zaman on Oct 7 and he remained in custody of the investigation agency for two days. The FIA submitted a plea seeking an extension in physical remand of the PTI leader. However, the court rejected the request and sent him to jail on judicial remand.
