In 1958, Mashriqi was falsely implicated in Dr. Khan Sahibs murder based on a concocted story. This is yet another example of political victimization. Political opponents wanted to get rid of Mashriqi and sought legitimacy through a court trial that would justify his hanging. Despite their desperate efforts, the prosecution failed to prove the charge filed against him and Mashriqi was honorably acquitted by the court and released on November 17, 1958.
