The Supreme Court has issued arrest warrants for PML-N MNA Chaudhry Abid Raza for his alleged involvement in the murder of six people in Gujrat.
The PML-N MNA who had won from NA-107 Gujrat-4 during the May 2013 general election was awarded death penalty by an anti-terrorism court (ATC) in 2003. However, Raza was acquitted after the families of the deceased forgave him after compromise.
An apex court bench headed by Chief Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamali took notice of his acquittal on terrorism charges. The bench stated that a compromise under Anti-Terrorism Act 1997 is not allowed.
