The two accused Waqar Khohkar and Akhter Khokhar were presented before an anti-terrorism court amid strict security measures. The ATC judge sent Waqar and Akhter Khokhar to jail on seven-day judicial remand and adjourned the hearing. The accused were arrested on March 1, when the police, on a tip-off, conducted raid at a house in Naushahro Feroze.
