PTI workers again summoned in Oct 4 protest case

The Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) of Islamabad on Monday once again summoned the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers who were absent from proceedings in the Oct 4 protest case.

Judge Tahir Abbas Sipra issued the notices after no worker appeared be-fore the court during the latest hearing.

During the proceedings, defence lawyers informed the court that the party workers, all of whom belong to Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, could not attend due to weather conditions in the province.

The court, however, issued fresh summons for their appearance and adjourned the hearing to a later date.
