A sessions court in Lahore granted post-arrest bail to podcast host Rehan Tariq in a case involving blasphemy laws and the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act. The court allowed bail with a Rs100,000 surety bond after defense arguments about lack of evidence and constitutional protections were accepted, despite prosecution claims that his podcast questions could provoke religious discord.
