An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Tuesday sent former governor Omar Sarfraz Cheema’s wife to jail on a 14-day judicial remand in the Jinnah House attack case.
Earlier, the police produced Omar’s wife Rabia Sultan and another accused, Fozia Malik, before ATC Judge Abher Gul Khan, amid strict security.
The investigation officer submitted an identification report and apprised the court that both accused had been identified.
He submitted that the accused were involved in vandalism and pleaded with the court to grant their physical remand for investigation. However, the defence counsel opposed the remand plea.
The court, after hearing detailed arguments of the parties, turned down the request for physical remand and sent both accused to jail on 14-day judicial remand.
Meanwhile, ATC Judge Ijaz Ahmad Buttar issued notices to police authorities on a post-arrest bail petition filed by Rabia Sultan and sought a reply by July 4.
The counsel for Rabia Sultan had moved the bail petition after the court sent his client to jail on judicial remand.
