LAHORE
A division bench of the Lahore High Court on Monday refused to hear the case of acquittal of PML-N MNA Abid Raza in a murder case and referred it to the chief justice for fixing it before some appropriate bench.
The bench headed by Justice Abdul Sami Khan said the matter is involving Anti-Terrorism Act and a special division bench is taking up such matter; therefore, the instant case should also be fixed before that division bench.
The court is revisiting the matter on the directions of the Supreme Court that has questioned how accused Abid Raza was acquitted after compromise in a case registered under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) of 1997.
The Supreme Court took suo motu notice of the acquittal during an election matter pertaining to eligibility of Abid Raza and revoked the acquittal of the suspects. The apex court referred the matter to the Lahore High Court with directions to decide afresh the issue of acquittal.
