GUJRANWALA: Anti-Terrorism Court No 2 Judge Bushra Zaman on Saturday granted six-day physical remand of three suspects said to be involved in the Pathankot airbase attack and handed them over to the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD).

The suspects had been arrested by the CTD from a rented house near Chand Da Qila bypass over suspicion that they were facilitators of the attack.

Suspects Khalid Mahmood, Irshadul Haque and Muhammad Shoaib denied charges and were shifted to an undisclosed location for investigation.
