An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Rawalpindi on Tuesday rejected the petitions filed by the former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan, Fawad Chaudhry and Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Omar Ayub Khan, seeking the provision of CCTV camera footage of the court’s hearing dated December 5, 2024 in the GHQ attack case, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
Judge Amjad Ali Shah agreed with Prosecutor Syed Zaheer Shah’s argument in which he had said that the court was located in the area, which was administered by the Punjab government, so, therefore, either the Lahore High Court (LHC) or the Punjab Home Department should be approached for obtaining the footage.
Also on Tuesday, the court indicted one more person in the GHQ attack case besides declaring two others namely Asim and Shaheer Iskandar proclaimed offenders.
The latest person to be indicted in the case was former MNA Bilal Ahmad.
Later the court adjourned the case’s hearing until January 6, 2025.
On January 6, the court will formally begin the trial in the case after the indictment of all 117 suspects.
