LAHORE An Anti-Terrorist Court in Gujranwala again sent remaining 21 accused, including ex-SHO Sialkot Sadar Rana Ilyas, on a six-day-long judicial remand on Thursday.

The court also ordered to file the challan of the trial by September 22nd. Six accused policemen including ex-DPO Sialkot Waqar Chohan have already been sent on a seven-day-long judicial remand to jail on Wednesday.

 

On Aug 15, dozens of people publicly beat to death two young brothers, Hafiz Mughees, 15, and Hafiz Muneeb, 19, in the presence of Sialkot District Police Officer Waqar Chauhan and eight other police officers who watched the brutal act as silent spectators. The bodies were later hanged upside down on the chowk.  — DawnNews
