LAHORE:
An Anti-Terrorism Court on Wednesday indicted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leaders Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Umar Sarfraz Cheema, Ijaz Chaudhary and Dr Yasmeen Rashid in a May 9 riots case.
The case, registered at Mughalpura Police Station, included charges of arson, anarchy, and disrupting law and order against PTI leaders. It stemmed from the incidents of May 9, 2023, following the arrest of PTI founder Imran Khan.
However, the accused pleaded not guilty and decided to contest the charges in court. They claimed that they had nothing to do with the charges framed against them.
