LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Thursday granted interim bail to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz MPA Mian Naveed in a case related to beating up the assistant commissioner of Pakpattan.
MPA Mian Naveed was booked for torturing the assistant commissioner of Pakpattan after Chief Minister Punjab Usman Buzdar took notice of the incident.
The FIR was registered against PML-N MPA under charges of interfering in government duty, abduction of the government employees, and torture.
The LHC approved interim bail of MPA Mian Naveed until December 24 against submission of a surety bond of Rs100,000. The court has also sought a reply from the Station Head Office (SHO) of the concerned PS into the matter.
