ISLAMABAD: The Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Islamabad issued arrest warrants for PTI’s Sheikh Waqas Akram and ordered the blocking of passports of senior PTI figures Omar Ayub and Zartaj Gul in cases relating to the party’s protest on November 26.
The ATC Judge Tahir Abbas Sipra heard cases against various PTI leaders who were said to be involved in the protest demonstrations. The court issued arrest warrants for Sheikh Waqas Akram due to his non-appearance and failure to obey the earlier summons.
The court also ordered relevant authorities to immediately block the passports of Omar Ayub and Zartaj Gul and to submit a compliance report before the court.
The judge ordered an expedited follow-up on the matter and summoned all parties to appear at the next hearing, which has been adjourned until December 3.
The orders mark the latest development in the ongoing legal proceedings against several PTI leaders facing charges related to alleged violations during the November 26 protest.
