Dawn says the Balochistan High Court gave Abdul Majeed Achakzai a ten-year sentence. The Express Tribune and Dunya News say 10 years of rigorous imprisonment. Dawn spells one judge Lehr. The other two spell him Lehri.

Ten years, Section 320, a September 4, 2020 acquittal set aside, and non-bailable warrants are on Dawn, The Express Tribune, and Dunya News. Rigorous imprisonment is The Express Tribune and Dunya News. Dawn's lede says a ten-year sentence and does not print rigorous. Amir and Lehr, on Dawn, and Aamir and Lehri, on the other two, are not the same spellings. Diyat, on Dawn, blood money, on The Express Tribune, and diyat (blood money), on Dunya News, are not the same word. Currently out on bail is The Express Tribune. It is not the bail sentence on the other two pages.

Dawn, by Saleem Shahid, published November 10, 2026, and updated November 10, 2026, at 03:55pm, with no zone on that clock, reported that the Balochistan High Court on Tuesday handed former MPA Abdul Majeed Achakzai a ten-year sentence in a case regarding the death of a traffic policeman in a hit-and-run incident. It reported a division bench comprising Justice Muhammad Amir Nawaz Rana and Justice Abdul Qayyum Lehr allowed an appeal filed by the provincial government against Achakzai's acquittal and set aside the local court decision dated September 4, 2020. It reported he was convicted under Section 320, which that page parenthesizes as punishment for qatl-i-khata by rash or negligent driving, of the Pakistan Penal Code, for causing the death of Traffic Sub-Inspector Haji Attaullah. It reported he was also ordered to pay diyat to the legal heirs of the deceased, and that the court directed the learned Additional Sessions Judge-VI, Quetta, to issue non-bailable warrants for his immediate arrest. The Express Tribune, by Sardar Hameed Khan, on a byline that printed November 10, 2026, and 3 min read and did not print an absolute clock, reported the court accepted the provincial government's appeal against the acquittal of Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party leader, former provincial lawmaker and Public Accounts Committee chairman Abdul Majeed Achakzai, sentencing him to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment in the case involving the death of traffic sub-inspector Haji Ataullah. It reported a division bench comprising Justice Muhammad Aamir Nawaz Rana and Justice Abdul Qayyum Lehri set aside the acquittal verdict announced on September 4, 2020, by the Additional Sessions Judge-VI and Model Criminal Trial Court-II, Quetta. It reported the conviction under Section 320 was for causing the death of traffic sub-inspector Haji Ataullah, who was on duty, by running him over while driving recklessly and negligently at high speed, and that the court ordered him to pay blood money. It reported the high court directed the Additional Sessions Judge-VI, Quetta, to issue non-bailable arrest warrants for Achakzai, who is currently out on bail, for his immediate arrest and the implementation of the sentence, and transfer to prison. Dunya News, on a page that printed Updated on 10 Nov 26, 15:21:06 UTC, and did not print a reporter's name, reported the Balochistan High Court has sentenced former MPA Abdul Majeed Achakzai to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment in a case involving the killing of traffic sub-inspector Ataullah. A ten-year sentence, on Dawn, and 10 years of rigorous imprisonment, on The Express Tribune and on Dunya News, are not the same line. Killing, in the Dunya News headline and in that lede, and a hit-and-run, on Dawn, and the death, on The Express Tribune, are not the same word for Section 320. Amir, on Dawn, and Aamir, on The Express Tribune and on Dunya News, are not the same spelling. Lehr, on Dawn, and Lehri, on The Express Tribune and on Dunya News, are not the same spelling. Diyat, on Dawn, blood money, on The Express Tribune, and diyat (blood money), on Dunya News, are not the same word. Haji Attaullah, on Dawn's conviction sentence, and Haji Ataullah, on The Express Tribune, and Ataullah, on Dunya News, are not the same name. Currently out on bail is The Express Tribune. Dawn's account of an anti-terrorism court bail six months after the case, and a 2020 acquittal, is not that Tuesday status line. Dunya News prints the warrants, the immediate arrest, and transfer to prison. It does not print out on bail. A division bench, on Dawn and on The Express Tribune, and a two-member bench, on Dunya News, are not the same phrase. Model Criminal Trial Court-II is The Express Tribune. It is not on the Dawn page or the Dunya News page fetched here. The learned, before the sessions judge, is Dawn. Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PkMAP), on Dawn, and Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PMAP), on The Express Tribune, are not the same spelling. Dunya News does not print the party.

Dawn reported traffic sergeant Ataullah was killed when a fast-moving vehicle hit him at GPO Chowk in Quetta in June 2017, that the ex-lawmaker was returning from the Balochistan Assembly after attending a session, and that the policeman suffered serious injuries and later died at the hospital. Sergeant, in that sentence, and Traffic Sub-Inspector, in the conviction sentence, are both on that page. Attaullah, in the conviction sentence, and Ataullah, in the June 2017 sentence, are both on that page. The Express Tribune reported the incident took place on June 20, 2017, at GPO Chowk on Zarghoon Road in Quetta, where a speeding official Land Cruiser belonging to Achakzai hit traffic sergeant Haji Ataullah Dashti, who was on duty, that Dashti sustained serious injuries and later died, and that a cyclist, Abdul Ghafoor Baloch, was also injured. June 20, Zarghoon Road, Land Cruiser, Dashti, and the cyclist are The Express Tribune. They are not on the Dawn page fetched here. Died at the hospital is Dawn. The Express Tribune prints later died and does not print the hospital. Dunya News reported the incident took place in June 2017 when a vehicle driven by Achakzai ran over traffic sub-inspector Ataullah, resulting in his death. It does not print June 20, GPO Chowk, a Land Cruiser, a fast-moving vehicle, the Assembly, the hospital, or a cyclist. A fast-moving vehicle, on Dawn, a speeding official Land Cruiser, on The Express Tribune, and a vehicle, on Dunya News, are not the same description. The Express Tribune also printed a line that there were also reports he was driving recklessly and was intoxicated. That reports line is not on Dawn or on Dunya News. Intoxicated is not a word in the Section 320 sentence on any of the three pages. Dawn reported police first registered an accident case against unidentified persons, that a manslaughter case was lodged after footage circulated, that an anti-terrorism court granted bail six months later, that a local court in Quetta acquitted him in 2020, and that the sentence about the later appeal prints the word filed twice. The Express Tribune reported he was arrested from his residence in Quetta's Satellite Town area on June 25, 2017, that a terrorism charge was later withdrawn, and that on September 4, 2020, the Model Criminal Trial Court acquitted him, with Judge Dost Muhammad Mandokhail writing in a 29-page judgment that the prosecution had failed to establish that he was driving. It reported that judgment said he had claimed, under Section 342, that his driver had been behind the wheel, and that the trial court acquitted him of charges under sections 302, 324, 279, 337 and 427. June 25, Satellite Town, the withdrawn terrorism charge, Judge Dost Muhammad Mandokhail, the 29 pages, the driver claim, and those section numbers are The Express Tribune. They are not on the Dawn page or the Dunya News page fetched here. Tuesday's order, on all three pages, is the Section 320 conviction and the warrants. It is not the 2020 acquittal. Dawn's photograph caption names Former Balochistan lawmaker Majeed Khan Achakzai. Majeed Khan Achakzai, in that caption, and Abdul Majeed Achakzai, in the Dawn body, are not the same name. The Express Tribune's caption names PkMAP lawmaker Abdul Majeed Khan Achakzai. Khan, in that caption, is not in the Tribune body name. That caption's frame was not the file saved. Dawn reported he is a close relative of opposition leader and PkMAP chairman Mehmood Khan Achakzai, that he was elected to the Balochistan Assembly twice, remained a minister, and served as chairman of the Public Accounts Committee. The Express Tribune prints the committee chairmanship in the lede and the 2013 election from PB-13 Qila Abdullah. It does not print Mehmood Khan Achakzai. Dunya News does not print the relative, the committee, or an election. The ten-year term and the warrants are the Tuesday order those pages describe. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
