ATC declares Imran, Qadri proclaimed offenders

ISLAMABAD: The Anti Terrorism Court (ATC) on Friday declared Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) Chief Dr Tahirul Qadri proclaimed offenders after they failed to appear in the case pertaining to the attack on SSP Operations Asmatullah Junejo.

On Wednesday, the ATC had issued arrest warrants for Imran Khan, Tahirul Qadri and others on the police departments request in connection with the attack on the PTV building and Parliament.

Imran Khan has announced that he will quit politics if his involvement in the attack on PTV is proven. Khan said that his arrest warrant was issued despite no one being injured in the PTV attack, while no warrants were issued over the killing of four people on Constitution Avenue.
