ISLAMABAD: The District and Sessions Court Islamabad acquitted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf(PTI) Imran Khan and others in Long March vandalism case.
The District and Sessions Court Islamabad acquitted PTI founder Imran Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur, former Sindh Governor Imran Ismail in the Long March vandalism case.
The court also acquitted Raja Khurram Shahzad, Ali Nawaz Awan and other accused from the case.
Civil Judge Shahzad Khan gave a pre-emptive verdict on the acquittal plea of the PTI leaders.
It may be remembered that in the Long March vandalism case, a case was registered against PTI founder Imran Khan and others in the police station secretariat.
Earlier, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the major opposition party, has organized protests in several major cities against the proposed 26th constitutional amendment, coinciding with the enforcement of Section 144, which prohibits public gatherings and demonstrations in Punjab and Sindh.
In Karachi, the situation turned tense as police used tear gas and batons against PTI activists who gathered near Empress Market to protest the government’s efforts to pass the controversial judicial package. Despite several roads being closed, a group of party supporters also gathered at the Karachi Press Club.
Due to the protests, Karachi police implemented an alternative traffic plan, closing major routes including those from Sharea Faisal’s FTC bridge to Metropole and from the Coast Guard Office to Karachi Press Club. DIG South Asad Raza announced the deployment of 1,200 police officers in the city’s Red Zone amid the protests.
