Punjab govt convinced to form new JIT for Model Town incident, SC told

Last month, the Supreme Court issued orders for the formation of a new joint investigation team for a fresh probe into the Model Town massacre.

On June 17, 2014, Punjab Police launched a crackdown to remove barriers erected outside the residence of the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri.

The subsequent clash between Police and the PAT workers resulted in the death of 14 workers of the party.
