RAWALPINDI: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) has suspended the non-bailable arrest warrants issued against Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur.
The Rawalpindi Anti-Terrorism Court on Thursday suspended the arrest warrants for CM Gandapur in a case registered in Hassan Abdal Police Station.
The request to suspend the arrest warrants was filed by Gandapur’s lawyer, Muhammad Faisal Malik, who argued that the Peshawar High Court had already granted bail to Gandapur in all cases.
The lawyer submitted the Peshawar High Court’s order to the court, after which the anti-terrorism court suspended the non-bailable arrest warrants issued against Gandapur.
Additionally, the court annulled proceedings to declare the chief minister as a proclaimed offender.
Last month, an ATC in Rawalpindi issued non-bailable arrest warrants for KP CM Gandapur and other PTI leaders in a case pertaining to the attack on army’s General Headquarters (GHQ) during May 9 violent protests last year.
