“Kasur Baitul Maal chairperson Nasir Mehmood and Market Committee chairperson Jameel Ahmed have been arrested,” the court was told.
Nasir Mehmood and Jameel Ahmed had been absconding ever since the protest rally was held in the city.
The Kasur DPO further informed the court that the names of the six accused, including MNA Waseem Akhtar and MPA Naeem Safdar, were placed on the Exit Control List (ECL).
The hearing was being held over a petition submitted by the president of Kasur district bar. A three-member bench headed by Justice Mazahir Ali Akbar Naqvi has since been hearing the case. The six accused, including the two lawmakers, were present in the court on Monday.
The court directed advocate Ali Ahmed Kurd to submit an affidavit on behalf of MNAs and MPAs at the next hearing. It also ordered to play the video of the rally on projector.
