LAHORE: An anti-terrorism court in Lahore on Tuesday issued non-bailable arrest warrants for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur .
The police had registered a case against Gandapur at the Manawan Police Station in Lahore for breaking the windows of vehicles while travelling for the public gathering in Lahore’s Kahna.
On September 24, the Lahore police filed a fresh case against CM Gandapur under 13 provisions, including the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA), for resorting to violence near Sialkot Interchange while en route to the provincial capital to attend the PTI jalsa.
The PTI held a rally in Lahore, which suddenly came to an end after the police raided the stage and turned off the microphone and lights which forced the PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan and other party leaders to leave the site.
The police and district administration took action after the PTI rally ignored the 6pm deadline specified in the no-objection certificate (NOC) and continued their show.
Later, videos emerged on social media showing the KP chief minister breaking the window of a truck with his rifle.
Subsequently, a first information report (FIR) was registered at Manawa Police Station with Gandapur being charged under 13 provisions, including attempted murder.
