Chamber vandalism suspect sent to jail

RAWALPINDI:

Judge Amjad Ali Shah of the Anti-Terrorism Court rejected the request for a further 15-day physical remand of Hassan Nawaz Khokhar — arrested in a case involving aerial firing and vandalism at the chamber of Wajeeh Pasha, son of former Pakistan Bar Council Vice Chairman Hassan Raza Pasha — and sent him to Adiala Jail on judicial remand.

He has been ordered to be produced again on December 3.

A bail petition has also been filed, which will be heard today.

High Court Bar Association Secretary General Khaleel Ahmed appeared in court and stated that both parties were reaching a settlement, with the Bar playing a mediatory role.
