TOBA TEK SINGH: The Gojra City police registered on Friday a case against two narcotic case accused already in jail for presenting bogus documents under which it was shown the Lahore High Court had granted their bail pleas and they produced the document before a Gojra additional district and sessions judge.

The first information report says Gojra Additional District and Sessions Judge Arif Mahmood Khan stated that both Saeed Ahmad Bajwa and Pervaiz Akhtar, of Gojra Chak 358-JB, had filed bail applications with his court, which he had rejected.

He added in the FIR that both later produced a “robkaar” or orders of the LHC that the high court had ordered their release and the accused had to produce bail bonds in his court.

As the documents were found dubious, the judge sent them to the LHC for verification from where it was replied that no judge of LHC had granted their bails.

RALLY: Scores of the Jamaat-i-Islami activists took out a rally here on Friday against Indian atrocities in India-held Kashmir.

They burnt an effigy of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Shahbaz Chowk.
