Lawyers of Jamshed Khan Dasti submitted three bail applications in different courts. Two of them turned down the bail plea while a court called the record of a case on June 14. Local Magistrate Muzaffargarh rejected the bail plea when the prosecutor informed the court that Police have added the section of Anti-Terrorism Act in FIR. Now he can move to ATC Dera Ghazi Khan only. Member National Assembly (MNA) Jamshed Dasti, who was arrested for forcibly opening canal in Muzaffargarh, has been shifted to Dera Ghazi Khan jail on Monday.
Dasti has been moved to DG Khan to appear before ATC after the clauses of terrorism were added in the case. Furthermore, judicial remand of Jamshed Dasti will also be requested from the court. According to the jail administration, the MNA will be sent back to Central Jail Multan after the hearing of canal case, as there are other cases lodged against him as well.
