LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Thursday directed the inspector general of police of Punjab to hear the point of view of a Christian trust organization and decide its plea within fortnight seeking a judicial inquiry into the burning of churches and houses by a mob in Jaranwala.

The court disposed of a petition of the Grace Bible Fellowship Church Pakistan. Earlier, a law officer challenged the maintainability of the petition and asked the court to refer the petition to IGP for a decision.

The petitioner organization stated that Joint Investigation Teams (JITs) constituted by the government will submit their findings after completion of due course.

Expressing its concerns over the working of the JITs, the Christian body said more than 500 suspects were involved in the riots, but the police have arrested 25 to 30 just to save their skins.
