An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Tuesday granted seven-day physical remand of two accused in Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) MPA Shehnaz Ansari’s murder case. Police produced Salma Khokhar and Siddiq Khokhar before the ATC in-charge judge requesting their remand for questioning in connection with investigation into the murder case. Approving their request, the court handed over in the custody of both accused to the police for seven days. The investigation officer informed that the two nominated key accused in the case are still at large. The 50-year old PPP leader was shot dead in Naushahro Feroze on Feb 16 over an alleged property dispute. The incident took place when the PPP leader was attending Chehlum of her brother-in-law in Naushahro Feroze. The police said that she was attacked over differences in a matter related to land ownership in Nowshera Feroze.
