The judge said that he could not work on disposal of customs officials. Ali’s challan has been filed which declares her responsible for the crime, he added. The judge then asked Mudassar to present arguments against her indictment.

Customs officials said that a complete challan has been filed against Ali. They urged the court to indict her today without any further delay.
