A local court of Islamabad on Saturday granted pre-arrest bail to PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi in a case related to May 9 violence. Additional District and Sessions Judge Syed Haroon Ahmed heard the case registered against PTI’s top gun at Khanna police station, while Qureshi and his council Ali Bukhari appeared before the court.
During the hearing, the counsel argued that the PTI’s vice chairman believed in the rule of law and supremacy of the constitution. He told the court that Qureshi had not been present at the scene of the incident and had not made any incriminating statements.—APP
