A court in Karachi on Thursday rejected a request to set free a number of traders, including a trade body leader, apprehended over flouting coronavirus lockdown regulations. The court sent President All City Tajir Ittehad Hammad Poonawala and other traders to jail on a 14-day judicial remand. It rejected bail applications moved by their lawyers seeking their release on bail. The Napier police had taken them into custody on a charge of breaching lockdown regulations the other day. Muhammad Ahsan, Muhammad Khalil, Javed Abdul Shakoor, Malik Aqeel and Faisal Hassan are among the accused.
