PTI leaders granted interim bail in rally-related case

In Islamabad, the court has granted interim bails to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Gohar Khan and Omar Ayub, among others. The bail was approved in a case related to holding a rally to demand the release of arrested supporters. Additional District and Session Judge Awais Muhammad Khan presided over the hearing of the bail plea, where the accusers were represented by Ali Bokhari advocate, Ansar Kiyani, Murtaza Tori advocate, and others. The defense argued that the case against the leaders was baseless and politically motivated, claiming that such cases are often registered whenever PTI engages in peaceful protests. The lawyers requested the court to grant bail to the leaders and prevent any police arrests. Subsequently, the court approved the interim bail for the PTI leaders on a transit guarantee of Rs5,000 and summoned responses from the involved parties.

The court's decision to grant interim bails to PTI leaders in the rally-related case reflects the ongoing legal battles faced by the party during its protests. The defense's assertion of political motivations behind the case highlights the contentious nature of such legal proceedings in the realm of political activism.
