Lahore High Court on Thursday rejected Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi’s two petitions. Lakhvi who has been alleged the mastermind of 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.

While rejecting his two petitions, the Rawalpindi bench of the Lahore High Court directed the Anti-Terrorism Court to consider Lakhvi’s objections against his indictment under provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code.

Lakhvi’s lawyer Sultan Ahmed claimed that the prosecution did not have any incriminating evidence against him. He also said the statement given to the Indian authorities by Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone surviving terrorist, was not admissible in the Anti-Terrorism Court.

 

The next hearing of the case will be in the Anti-Terrorism Court in Rawalpindi’s high-security Adiala jail on Saturday.
