The Lahore High Court (LHC) has upheld the order of a lower court regarding registration of an FIR against prime minister, Punjab chief minister and other federal and provincial ministers on a complaint of Minhajul Quran in Model Town shooting case.
The sessions court in Lahore had issued a verdict on the petition filed by MuQ, ordering the provincial government to have the case registered on the complaint of Minhajul Quran.
The federal ministers filed an appeal in the LHC challenging the sessions court verdict.
The Lahore High Court dismissed the appeal, laying the way open for persecution of the persons nominated in the FIR.
