Pakistan court adjourns 26/11 trial till Feb 3

Islamabad, January 28

Prosecution in the 2008 Mumbai attack today failed to produce the record of the case involving seven suspects, including mastermind Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, forcing Pakistan’s new anti-terrorism court to adjourn the hearing till February 3.

The prosecution told the recently-established Anti-Terrorism Court (II), Islamabad, that the record of the case had been with the Islamabad High Court in connection with Lakhvi’s bail case.

“The government has challenged Lakhvi’s bail in the IHC and the case record is with the high court and it will be produced in the next hearing,” Prosecution Chief Chaudhry Azhar said. — PTI
