Earlier, Dr Yasmin Rashid was produced before ATC Judge Abher Gul Khan on being summoned. The investigation officer submitted that Dr Yasmin Rashid was involved in setting police vehicles on fire near Rahat Bakery in cantonment area. He pleaded with the court to grant her physical remand for investigation.
However, the defence counsel opposed the remand plea. The court, after hearing arguments of the parties, turned down request for physical remand and sent Dr Yasmin Rashid to jail on 14-day judicial remand in the case. The Sarwar Road police had registered a case against PTI leaders and workers for setting vehicles on fire in the cantonment area.
It is pertinent to mention here that Dr Yasmin Rashid was on judicial remand in other cases and she was produced before the court from jail. Separately, a Judge of the Anti-Corruption Court on Tuesday granted bail to PTI leader Ali Muhammad Khan and former KP minister Shakeel Ahmed in corruption cases.
Ali Muhammad Khan was arrested for illegal recruitment in the Mardan Fisheries Department while the former provincial Minister Shakeel Ahmed was accused of illegal recruitment in DHQ Hospital Malakand. The court accepted the bail applications of both leaders and ordered their release.
