A local court on Friday extended bail to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar in a case pertaining to attacking police officials on the occasion of former president Asif Ali Zardari and PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s appearance before the NAB, till July 9. The hearing was presided over by the Additional District and Session Judge, Jehangir Awan. The court while accepting Nawaz’s plea to grant him one-day exemption from court appearance, extended his bail until July 9. Khokhar was given bail against a surety bond of Rs 500,000. The police had booked more than 70 PPP workers, including Khokhar for clashing with the police officials outside the NAB headquarters where the PPP leader had appeared to record their statement in a fake bank accounts case. The case had been registered at Secretariat police station on the complaint of the SHO under section 186, 353, 147, 149, 188, 341, 109 of the PPC. Several police personnel were injured when PPP workers hurled stones at police personnel while trying to enter the NAB premises before the arrival of the PPP chairman and co-chairman.
