An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Faisalabad on Tuesday approved handing over four accused involved in attacking defence installations during May 9 riots to the military court.
The commanding officer of the Pakistan Army had sought the custody of the suspects allegedly involved in attacking the office of a security institution in Faisalabad during the violent protests triggered following the arrest of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan.
ATC Judge Muhammad Hussain conducted the hearing of the case and allowed the transfer of the accused to be tried under Army Act.
