On February 26, 2026, an Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Karachi formally indicted Armaghan Qureshi and his co-accused Sheraz in the high-profile murder case of Mustafa Amir, who was allegedly kidnapped and murdered on January 6, 2025. The court proceedings revealed that the suspects are accused of torturing Amir and then burning his body in the trunk of his car in the Hub area of Balochistan. Both defendants pleaded not guilty, with the court scheduling witness testimonies for March 12, 2026.
