PESHAWAR: An anti-terrorism court in Peshawar is set to declare former Chief Minister Sohail Afridi a proclaimed offender in the Radio Pakistan attack case, as detectives cannot locate him. Judge Wali Mohammad Khan ordered the issuance of proclamation notices under Section 87 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) for Afridi and fellow accused Mohammad Amir Khan.
The court fixed November 24 for the submission of the detective constable's report and further proceedings. The warrants were issued on October 28 after a supplementary charge-sheet was submitted, naming Afridi, Amir, and other PTI officials in the May 2023 attack on Radio Pakistan in Peshawar. Afridi, who is the dysfunctional chief minister, has not been seen since October 11 when the governor's rule and emergency were imposed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
