The police have registered a case against four officials of the Central Jail Bahawalpur for helping a prisoner escape the premises. The FIR said that the officials colluded to help convict Nawaz escape. The officials have been booked for being negligent. Nawaz has been booked for escaping custody.
A local court had given a 12-year sentence in jail to Nawaz in 2012 for peddling drugs. The officials helped him escape in 2019, after he had served only seven years.
