PESHAWAR: The District Bar Association, Peshawar, on Wednesday announced to observe boycott from courts’ proceedings against non-withdrawal of unnecessary security from the Peshawar High Court and the Judicial Complex despite expiry of ultimatum.

The DBA information secretary, Muhammad Luqman, said that they had given a 24 hours deadline to security agencies after consultation with KP Bar Council to remove unnecessary personnel but the call was not responded to. He said that it was decided in the general body meeting to observe complete boycott of courts against the non-implementation of their demand.
