BAHAWALPUR: The offices of District and Sessions Judge Rana Masood Akhtar were not locked by lawyers on Thursday to protest presence of police on court premises.

The judge’s courtroom is located at a significant distance from the main entrance to the court premises and this gate was locked by the lawyers. The courtroom was open.

The error is regretted.
