LAHORE: The leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Yasmin Rashid has approached the Lahore High Court (LHC) against the new Joint Investigation Team (JIT) established by the federal government to probe into the shooting at PTI Chairman Imran Khan in Wazirabad.

The Punjab and the federal governments are listed as respondents in the petition.
