LAHORE: Police on Monday took into custody a vehicle said to be used to bring stones pelted at police outside NAB office shortly after arrival of Maryam Nawaz there last week.
Soon after a clash that broke out between PML-N supporters and the police, footage had emerged showing some stones being loaded into Land Cruiser, LZ-6000, raising questions as to whether the clash had been pre-planned by the PML-N.
Lahore police took the vehicle into custody but couldn’t arrest its owner, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz MPA Iftikhar Chachar because of him having obtained bail from a court to avoid his arrest.
