Punjab government has notified to shift the trial of Priyantha Kumara lynching case to the Kot Lakhpat Jail in Lahore with a special prosecution team designated to plead the case against multiple suspects from a Sialkot factory.
According to a notification issued from the provincial government, the case trial will now be held inside the Kot Lakhpat Jail owing to its sensitivity after being transferred from Sialkot.
A three-member special prosecution team headed by Abdul Rauf Watto will proceed with the case and has been directed to submit a progress report on the case on regular basis to prosecutor general Punjab.
