Islamabad ATC declares KP chief minister proclaimed offender

Pakistan(National Times)- ISLAMABAD: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Islamabad on Friday declared Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur a proclaimed offender (PO) in a case lodged at the I-9 police station over vandalism and violation of Section 144 in the federal capital. An order in this regard was issued by ATC Judge Tahir Abbas Sipra. The ATC had on Thursday initiated proceedings to declare Gandapur a proclaimed offender due to his continuous absence despite repeated summons. The court said the KP CM’s case had been separated from other suspects after declaring Gandapur PO. Whereas, non-bailable arrest warrants for suspects Raja Rashid, Wasiq Qayyum, Faisal Javed and Umer Tanveer have been issued. Lawyers of all the other suspects, who did not show up, sought exemption for their clients from appearance, but the court declined the plea and cancelled bail bonds of the absentees. The ATC adjourned further hearing of the case till November 28. A case with terrorism charges was filed against PTI leaders Gandapur, Faisal, Khurram, and Waqas at the I-9 police station in Islamabad. The Islamabad ATC order against Gandapur comes ahead of the much-hyped PTI power show in Islamabad, set to take place on November 24 despite strict federal government orders against it.  The KP CM is expected to lead the PTI supporters in the rally.
