Web Desk: A local court has granted police a two-day physical remand of social media personality Mr Patlo, while another court dismissed interim bail applications filed by the TikToker and his brother Kashif in a separate criminal case.
Judicial Magistrate Kashan Muhammad Ali approved the remand after police requested additional custody of the accused for investigation.
The developments have added to the legal troubles facing the social media personality, who is involved in proceedings at two police stations.
Police brought Mr Patlo before the judicial magistrate in a wheelchair amid security arrangements.
During the hearing, investigators submitted the case record and requested physical custody of the accused to continue their investigation.
After reviewing the police application, Magistrate Kashan Muhammad Ali granted a two-day physical remand and handed the TikToker over to Saddar Police Station.
Following the court’s decision, officers transferred Mr Patlo from the judicial complex to the police station under heavy security.
The available information did not specify why the accused appeared in a wheelchair or provide details about his medical condition.
Meanwhile, Mr Patlo and his brother Kashif suffered another legal setback after a court dismissed their interim pre-arrest bail applications in a case registered at Motra Police Station.
The court rejected the applications in First Information Report (FIR) No. 1335/26 because the accused failed to appear at the scheduled hearing and did not pursue their bail requests.
According to the court proceedings, neither accused appeared before the court at the appointed time.
Consequently, the court dismissed their applications for non-appearance and non-prosecution.
The dismissal of the interim bail applications removes the protection previously sought by Mr Patlo and Kashif in the Motra Police Station case.
As a result, police may pursue their arrests in accordance with applicable legal procedures, subject to any other court orders or protections.
However, the dismissal does not establish guilt, and the allegations against the accused remain subject to judicial proceedings.
The latest developments mean Mr Patlo remains in police custody under the two-day remand order while facing separate proceedings in the Motra case.
Investigators are expected to continue their inquiry during the remand period before presenting the accused before the competent court for further orders.
Meanwhile, the legal position of his brother Kashif will depend on subsequent proceedings and any fresh applications submitted before the relevant court.
