The court issued arrest warrants for 31 accused in the GHQ attack case whereas copies of challan were given to the accused including the PTI founder and vice president Shah Mehmood Qureshi. Khan and Qureshi were handed over copies through their lawyers.

On the other hand, the PTI leaders and workers accused in cases pertaining to protests on Sept 28 and Oct 4 requested exemption from hearing.
