An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Saturday reserved its verdict on pre-arrest bail petitions of PTI founding chairman Imran Khan in three cases related to the May 9 riots. The prosecution equated last year’s protests to the United States Capitol Hill attacks, while the defence rejected allegations of conspiracy.
During the final arguments, Barrister Salman Safdar, Mr Khan’s counsel, stated that his client had been denied justice for a year. Judge Khalid Arshad noted that there had been delays due to various reasons, including some caused by the petitioner’s counsel, and pointed out that the Lahore High Court had directed the trial court to mark the suspect’s attendance via video link from jail.
