An anti-terrorism court (ATC) of Islamabad on Wednesday issued arrest warrants for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers involved in May 9 vandalism for failing to appear before the court. Justice Tahir Abbas Sipra of the ATC conducted hearing of the cases against PTI founder Imran Khan, PTI Vice President Shah Mahmood Qureshi and several PTI workers. The hearing couldn’t proceed as Khan and Qureshi didn’t appear before the court, prompting the judge to adjourn the hearing until May 9 while ordering arrest of absent PTI workers. The defendant’s lawyer contended that case could not be proceeded citing unavailability of the incarcerated PTI founder while requesting exemption of PTI workers, who travelled from far-flung areas for the hearing. R20;The Supreme Court (SC) gave instructions regarding May 9 cases on Tuesday. Therefore, the SC instructions are valid for this case as well,” the judge remarked. The defendant replied that those instructions were merely applicable in Punjab.
