RAWALPINDI: An Anti-Terrorism Court on Monday sentenced former Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat (ASWJ) Rawalpindi president Mufti Tanveer to six months in prison with fine of Rs50,000 for stirring up sectarian hatred.
Earlier this year, the ASWJ leader was arrested by the Counter-Terrorism Department and registered a First-Information Report (FIR) under section 9 of the Anti-Terrorism Act against him for hate speech. He was later granted bail in the case.
The accused was arrested from the court and will be imprisoned in Rawalpindi’s Adiala jail.
Mufti Tanveer is on CTD Punjab’s most wanted list and was previously taken into custody by Rangers after weapons without licenses were recovered from him and eight others.
