Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Yasmin Rashid has been discharged in the Jinnah House attack case.
An anti-terrorism court in Lahore while discharging PTI leader Yasmin Rashid in the Jinnah House attack case, ordered the immediate release of the former Punjab health minister.
An anti-terrorism court (ATC) rejected the police’s plea seeking physical remand of the PTI leader.
The order said: “… perusal of record reveals that neither Dr Yasmin Rashid is nominated in the FIR nor involved through supplementary statement and she was summoned in the case on the disclosure of a co-accused which has no evidentiary value in the eye of the court.”

It added that no “incriminating material” was found against Rashid and ordered her release.
The PTI has claimed that party leader Yasmin Rashid was kept in jail for 24 days “in a fake case to spread propaganda in the media”.

“Dr Yasmin Rashid is an elderly woman with cancer who spent her entire life as a doctor saving people’s lives. As a minister, she saved millions of lives during the Covid epidemic,” it added.
