Punjab govt issues Javed Latif, Marriyum Auragzeb notices in terror case

Federal Information and Broadcasting Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb and Federal Minister Javed Latif have been summoned to appear at the police station in a terrorism case.

In notices issued to both the PML-N leaders, the Punjab government has asked them to appear at the Green Town police station in Lahore for questioning on October 18.

According to the notice, Pakistan Television (PTV) Managing Director Sohail Khan and Controller Program Rashid Baig under anti-terrorism provisions have also been issued notices to appear at the police station.

According to the notice, a case has been registered against the four under the Anti-Terrorism Act at the Greentown police station.

On September 19 this year, the former Punjab home minister, Hashim Dogar, shared on Twitter the FIR filed against the PML-N leaders.

He said incitement to sectarian hatred and violence against any citizen, including [PTI Chairman] Imran Khan will not be allowed.

The case was registered at the Green Town police station by PTI activist Irshad-ur-Rehan.
