An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Lahore extended the interim bails of PTI leaders in cases involving vandalism and damage to government property during the Long March towards Islamabad until July 26.
The court saw leaders of the PTI’s Punjab chapter Jamshed Iqbal Cheema, Hamad Azahar, Yasmeen Rashid, Ejaz Chaudhary, Mehmoodur Rashid, and Aslam Iqbal.
On May 25, when PTI leaders and workers wanted to leave the Punjab premises to travel to Islamabad for what they called the Haqiqi Azadi march, Punjab police filed FIRs during the long march.
Police claimed that PTI leaders incited violence and damaged public property during their march and that large amounts of tear gas were used during the clashes between workers and police.
