Aliya Hamza, a leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has approached the Islamabad High Court (IHC) seeking protective bail for cases filed against her in Faisalabad and Sargodha. Her petition, submitted through her lawyers Khaqan Mir and Ishtiaq A. Khan, requests an urgent hearing.
Just yesterday, an Anti-Terrorism Court in Gujranwala cleared Hamza of charges related to the May 9 vandalism. This ruling came after she had already spent over a year in detention on various May 9-related cases. She had been arrested by Gujranwala police right after her release from custody in Sargodha.
