KARACHI: An Anti-Terrorism Court in Karachi today (Monday) has rejected the bail petition of Opposition Leader in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Shaikh in two cases registered against him.
According to details, the anti-terrorism court announced its verdict after hearing arguments of both defence and prosecution sides. Talking to journalists outside the Sindh Assembly today (Monday), he remarked that all PTI MPAs are Prime Minister Imran Khan’s tigers.
He claimed that the “dirty business” taking place during the Senate elections will finally be put to an end. “We just have to see how the election commission ensures that the elections are free and fair,” he added.
One of the two cases pertained to attempted murder, interference in government duties and disruption during an anti-encroachment drive while the other related to violence, firing and causing terror during the by-polls in Karachi’s PS-88.
The opposition leader’s judicial remand turned controversial after he accused the PPP members and supporters of attempting to murder him. The PPP has, however, denied the charges.
