During the hearing, his lawyer alleged that his client was booked in the cases on the directives of Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, adding he was subjected to vengeful action on being appointed as the opposition leader.
He pleaded with the bench to order the PTI leader’s release on bail. Haleem Adil Sheikh said terrorism provisions incorporated in the FIRs showed mala fide intentions of the PPP government. “Murad Ali Shah and the PPP leadership is involved,” he said.
