LAHORE: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Monday indicted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi in a case of torching the Shadman Police Station during May 9 riots.
ATC Judge Khalid Arshad conducted proceedings at the Kot Lakhpat Jail, where Qureshi was produced after being brought from the Adiala Jail of Rawalpindi. The court indicted Qureshi who pleaded not guilty and expressed his intent to contest the charges.
At this, the court adjourned proceedings until July 18 and summoned prosecution witnesses to record their statements on the next date of hearing. A copy of Challan had already been given to the accused at the last hearing.
