A day after police registered a First Information Report (FIR) against activists of the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) for the deadly clash in Lahore, the police declared the main suspect nominated in the FIR innocent due to lack of evidence.
Hussain Mohiuddin, son of Dr Tahirul Qadri, was nominated as the main accused in the FIR lodged on the complaint of Faisal Town SHO Rizwan Qadir Hashmi.
The bloodshed took place outside the Central Secretariat of Minhajul Quran International in the Model Town neighbourhood of Lahore on June 17. As many as nine people including two women were killed in the clash and dozens others were injured.
