The court granted the bail in a sum Rs150,000 each after hearing arguments of the counsel for the Rangers men -- Mohammad Abbas, Karamat Hussain, Mazhar Hussain, Mohammad Khalil and Mohammad Razzaque.
The court fixed April 26 for confirmation of the interim bail.
The Rangers men were booked in the murder case on the court’s order after an applicant submitted that the SHO of the Khensar police station of Chhachhro taluka was not registering the case.
