ATC mandates the release of Azam Swati in the protest case.

The anti-terrorism court judge, Abul Hasnat, reviewed the case and granted post-arrest bail to Swati, contingent upon surety bonds of Rs 20,000 apiece.

Earlier this year, a specialized court issued an arrest warrant for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader and former federal minister Azam Swati about a contentious tweet.

Special Judge Central Shahrukh Arjumand instructed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to apprehend Azam Swati and bring him before the court.

The judge issued an arrest warrant for Swati due to his repeated absences from court proceedings in the case.

On November 27 of the previous year, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) apprehended Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Senator Azam Swati in connection with contentious tweets directed at state institutions.

A senior of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was apprehended by a three-member team from the Federal Investigation Agency at his farmhouse in Chak Shahzad, Islamabad, following contentious tweets directed against state institutions.
