Mohsin Raza Naqvi

Caretaker Punjab Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi on Saturday expressed his resolve to take terrorism-related cases to their logical conclusion.

The chief minister made these remarks while chairing a meeting in Lahore to review the so-far progress on legal proceedings against May 9 rioters.

During the meeting, it was decided to file appeals to revoke the bails of the accused in high profiles cases.

Mohsin Naqvi expressed displeasure over non-identification of 171 miscreants involved in May 9 riots, directing the authorities to complete the identification process at the earliest.

The caretaker CM directed to proceed the cases in a professional manner and make effective prosecution.

He said that vandalism, arson and plunder were carried out under an organized plan and the heinous game played on May 9 is ‘unpardonable’.
