FBI agent Joel Cox left for Dubai after a local court dropped a case on Monday.
During hearing of the case in Malir Judicial Magistrate Court , Joel Cox, who was earlier released on bail, appeared in person amid tight security.
Joel Cox’s lawyer told the court that his client was on “special mission” in Pakistan and he was permitted to keep arms with him.
A special letter of the U.S. embassy was also presented in the court in this regard.
The court ordered for verification of the letter from interior ministry and later on certification from the Sindh home department, the court dismissed the case. Mr. Cox’s lawyer did not specify what exactly the ‘special mission’ was.
