QUETTA, Sept 9 The inquiry tribunal formed to investigate the suicide attack on an Al Quds procession in Quetta would start deliberations on Sept 17. Sixty-five people were killed in the Sept 3 terrorist strike.

The tribunal headed by Balochistan High Court Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa has asked the people concerned, including security personnel, who wish to record their statements or produce any evidence about the incident, to appear before the tribunal.

BOYCOTT Meanwhile, lawyers boycotted courts for the third consecutive day on Thursday in response to a call of the Balochistan Bar Association to protest against the murder of a lawyer, Zaman Marri, whose body was found near Mastung on Sept 6.

Lawyers' organisations would meet on Sept 14 to determine the future course of action.
