May 9 riots: Khadija Shah, 7 other PTI women presented in ATC

LAHORE: Following the identification parade, seven other women accused associated with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), including prominent fashion designer Khadija Shah, were presented before the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) Friday.

The arrested PTI women, after their appearance in court, expressed their dismay over their detention.

They strongly asserted that they have not faced any form of abuse during their time in jail. They added that their continued detention without any concrete evidence against them is a clear act of abuse.

In a separate development, the Lahore High Court witnessed the production of Khadija Shah, the daughter of former finance minister Salman Shah and a well-known fashion designer. The police handed her over to the court for further proceedings.

Khadija Shah had voluntarily surrendered herself at Lahore’s Iqbal Town police station on May 23. Following her surrender, an anti-terrorism court remanded her into judicial custody for a period of seven days, starting from May 24.
