Islamabad ATC grants bail to Imaan Mazari, Hadi Ali Chattha in road blockade, police clash case

An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Pakistan has granted pre-arrest bail to four Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) leaders, including former National Assembly speaker Asad Qaiser, in connection with the protests on November 26 and a demonstration outside the Supreme Court. The court ordered the leaders, Asad Qaiser, Atif Khan, Latif Khosa, and Faisal Amin Gandapur, to provide surety bonds of Rs5,000 each.

This decision comes after the court dismissed their previous pre-arrest bail applications due to their repeated absence in court. On the same day, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) scheduled a hearing for a petition filed by members of the National Dialogue Committee (NDC), requesting permission to meet Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, at Adiala jail.

The hearing is set for November 5 and will be presided over by Justice Umer Majid Malik. The petition, filed by Fawad Chaudhry, Imran Ismail, Mahmood Baqi Molvi, and Muhammad Ali Khan Saif, has been nominated for responses by the interior secretary, Punjab home secretary, and the superintendent of Adiala jail.
