LAHORE – Relief for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf activist Aliya Hamza who gets bail in case related to riots on May 9.
A court in Gujranwala released PTI leader with a bond of Rs 50,000. In previous proceedings, another court had given Aliya a four-day remand, which was less than what the police requested.
On June 6, she was arrested again in connection with a different case related to the May 9 riots. She was picked up outside Sargodha jail and then sought by the Gujranwala police for further charges.
Aliya Hamza is facing multiple charges along with several PTI leaders for vandalism from nationwide riots that followed the arrest of former Prime Minister Imran Khan on May 9.
The situation escalated when PTI supporters attacked Jinnah House, leading to numerous arrests and injuries to both protesters and army personnel.
