A division bench of the Lahore High Court here Tuesday granted bail to nine accused allegedly involved in the burning of Joseph Colony in Badami Bagh. The accused includes Lal Khan, Muhammad Imran, Sudhir Khan, Imran Butt, Amanullah, Farhan, Sarfraz, Anwar and Qasim.
The petitioners' counsel argued that they were not nominated in the FIR and police arrested them only to its show performance. The counsel said police did not arrest the nominated accused. The court after hearing the petitioners' counsel at length allowed them bail.
