Pomi is the brother of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) MPA Khalid Butt.
Additionally, the bails of seven other suspects were also approved.
Pomi had reportedly been the main culprit behind incident that took place in Gujranwala on Friday, which involved the pelting of stones on PTI workers during their 'Azadi' march - injuring four as a result.
The PTI leaders called for the immediate registration of an FIR against Pomi.
Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif had taken notice of the incident, and on his orders a criminal case was registered at the Sabzi Mandi police station in Gujranwala against Pomi and his accomplices on charges of pelting stones on PTI’s rally.
Pomi had surrendered himself to the police, and was arrested with his accomplices.
The case had been registered under Sections 506, 147 and 149 of the Pakistan Penal Code.

@Aysha M: Life of the people of Karachi is more than dull, it's miserable amid the six long yeras of plunder and destruction of Karachi by Wadera Corruption Party and its proud partner MQM
Why has he not been given a thorough 'dunda' beating? This is how one deals with professional and inured goondas. Salams
Keep voting for Nawaz and his clowns, this is what you get. Unemployment, load shedding, inflation, twisted politics, and even manipulated justice from courts. Keep sitting idle while he and his gang sends millions of pakistan's...your earnings to London, you (PML-N voters) guys truly deserve to be ruled by clowns all life.
Justice served, Pakistan Judiciary style!
When it comes to Zardaris, Sharifs, Gullu and Pomi Butts these courts are ultra kind. When it comes to safeguarding this system of loot, corruption and feudalism these courts are ultra strict in protecting it.
if Guloo Butt can get bail, Why not Pomi Butt ! after all he is an MNA. for them Jail is only a safe house from media and law.
@Ozair: The courts did not just release him. Do you even know what bail is? Bail is everyone's right, even if someone is a murderer he has every right to ask for bail. It is in our constitution.
Was there any evidence against him to begin with? Or was it all PTI troll justice on the internet?
Bail is denied only if you are poor or innocent. Justice-RIP
Very efficient. Is'nt Saturday normally a day off for the courts!
Pomi butt was not even named in the FIR. Good bye justice. And good bye professional police of Punjab.
The miscreants of PMLN always get swift Justice, this is nothing but Gullocracy and not democracy.
PMLN and the Judges have become suspects of terrorism in the country. Without the Sharifs and the Butts Pakistan would be a safer place.
He is out because the prosecutors failed to establish what he did... Courts cannot go beyond their jurisdiction to hold him in jail. This system need overhauling soon, or else... I don't know... and not knowing is scary
OFCOURSE the Courts will release such a pious individual. Pakistan courts are the embodiment of the word "Justice"
That stinks!
Punjab is being ruled by Butt(Pomi and Gullo)...they are the future ministers ,one as a law minister another interior minister
What a surprise, violence from a illegal govt.
He will be released as the video footage etc will not be allowed as evidence..... our lower judiciary is a disgrace.
Life would be so dull without these but breed, and the courts of course which nurtures the kind
Not surprised.
