The court also allowed a one-time exemption from personal appearance for Raja and Khan’s sister.
The court also discharged PTI leaders Akmal Khan Bari and Habibur Rehman from a case related to violence during a protest on October 06.
The police had arrested the two leaders and presented them before the court, seeking permission to shift them to jail for their identification parade.

The court after hearing arguments in detail discharged both leaders.
