Lahore (Staff Report): An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Thursday reserved its verdict in a six-year-old Zainab’ rape and murder case.
The verdict will be announced on Saturday, Feb 17.
On Monday, the ATC indicted Imran Ali Naqshbandi, the prime accused, in Zainab rape and murder case.
ATC Judge Sajjad Ahmad indicted the suspect in the murder and rape case of Zainab , who was kidnapped from near her aunt’s house in Kasur on January 4 and found dead in a garbage heap five days later.
Punjab police arrested the main accused after his DNA matched the samples taken from the crime scene.
Earlier, Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Shehbaz Sharif said that if the law allows, the entire nation will request the court to permit the public hanging Zainab’s killer , Imran Ali, at any roundabout of Lahore or Kasur.
“It’s a request of the entire nation to the courts that if the law allows the convict should be hanged at any roundabout of Lahore or Kasur so that the entire world could see it,” Shehbaz said.
