LAHORE (Dunya News) - A session court in Lahore confirmed on Monday the interim bail to the leaders of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in the case of a brawl in the hall of Punjab Assembly (PA) and the torture of PA Deputy Speaker Dost Muhammad Mazari

The court held a hearing to discuss the possibility of releasing PTI leaders Fayyazul Hassan Chohan, Musarrat Jamshed Cheema, Dr. Yasmin Rashid, and Sibtain Khan on a temporary basis, according to information obtained.

The PTI leaders testified in court that a false and unfounded police complaint had been made against them. They added that they wished to participate in the investigation but were concerned about police arrest.

They demanded that the court confirm their temporary release on bail and prevent their arrest of them by the police.

The court then approved the interim bail for each PTI leader.
