Summary Imran Khan appeared in the court and again sought for the exemption which was accepted by the judge.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) on Monday has granted exemption to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan from appearance in next hearing of cases pertaining to attack on PTV and Parliament.
Imran Khan appeared in the court and again sought for the exemption which was accepted by the judge.
Talking to media, Imran Khan declared Chief Minister of Punjab (CM) Shehbaz Sharif as ‘Chota Don’. He said that the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Capital Engineering Company Faisal Subhan who took contract of Multan metrobus project is missing from past few days.
PTI chief also alleged Punjab CM of spending mammoth amount of 9,000 billion in nine years, adding profit of metrobus projects in Multan and Lahore is being given to the Sharif family.
He further demanded to make these projects public.
Earlier, PTI chief’s lawyer had filed a plea, requesting to grant exemption to Imran Khan before the next hearing and continue trial through his representative but the court rejected it.
On Aug 31, 2014, anti-government protestors from PTI and PAT clashed with police while marching towards the Parliament and Prime Minister House.
The clash resulted in the deaths of three participants of the sit-ins. Hundreds, including demonstrators and police officials, were wounded.
The transmission of PTV News and PTV World was cut off for almost half an hour before the Pakistan Army cleared the building.
