LAHORE: An anti-terrorism court on Friday directed the police to complete by April 29 the identification parade of 10 activists of Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) involved in the attack on an international fast food chain in Sheikhupura.

The police presented the suspects in the court after bringing them from jail.

The investigating officer told the court that more time was required for the identification parade of the suspects.
