An anti-terrorism court in Lahore has ordered the seizure of properties belonging to four senior Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders—Dr. Yasmin Rashid, Umar Sarfraz Cheema, Mian Mahmood Al-Rasheed, and Ijaz Chaudhry—in connection with two cases related to the violent protests on May 9.
The court sentenced each of the accused to 10 years in prison along with fines of six million rupees each. Jail warrants have been issued for their arrest, and the superintendent of the jail has been directed to ensure their transfer and imprisonment according to court orders.
These cases pertain to violent demonstrations following the arrest of PTI Chairman on May 9, 2023, during which military installations and public and private properties were attacked. The detailed verdict was announced recently in cases registered at Shadman and Sarwar Road police stations.
