During the hearing, the lawyers cross-examined Mukhtiarkar Rohri.

Syed Khursheed Shah, Awais Qadir Shah, and other defendants appeared in court for an accountability hearing.

Farrukh Ahmed Shah MPA arrived in court in an armoured transport van from Sukkur Jail.

Khursheed Shah, the head of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), and 17 others were previously charged with having assets beyond their means.
