ISLAMABAD – A local court on Saturday issued a non-bailable arrest warrant for PML-N stalwart and Prime Minister’s aide on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah in the case related to the PDM 2020 rally.
Judicial Magistrate Sidra Gul Nawaz issued arrest warrants for Rana Sanaullah, directing authorities to arrest the former interior minister and present him in court on December 12.
The warrants were issued in connection with a case registered at Satellite Town police station in Gujranwala, dating back to October 2020, when Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) rally was held.
