The FIR stated that 20-25 people, including Advocate Usman Riaz, Mirza Asim, Zahid Bashir, and Ansar Kiani, attacked Khawar Maneka which resulted in his injuries.
The lawyers allegedly tried to intimidate and influence the judicial proceedings, and were charged with terrorism and nine other counts.
The FIR further stated that the lawyers, led by Fatehullah, chanted slogans and attacked Khawar Maneka, saying that they would not let him live.
Fatehullah, Naeem Panjotha, and Advocate Ejaz Bhatti allegedly beat Khawar Maneka, while officials Irshad and Waheed tried to intervene but were disarmed by the lawyers.
Lawyer Fatehullah also allegedly quarreled with Constable Khalid and tore his uniform.
Khawar Maneka was attacked by lawyers outside court, where Judge Shahrukh Arjumand was hearing PTI founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi’s plea against Nikah Case conviction.
Women hurled bottles at Khawar Maneka after his allegedly derogatory remarks during the case hearing.
