According to sources, the incarcerated PTI leader will be presented before the anti-terrorism court in Lahore’s Kot Lakhpat Jail.
Sources said that Shah Mehmood is booked in several May 9 riot cases in Lahore and police have interrogated the former foreign minister in jail.
Earlier, the PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi was sent to judicial remand following his alleged involvement in the May 9 riots.
The court after rejecting the plea to extend the physical remand, sent the PTI leader to judicial remand under police custody for 14 days.
Qureshi, who is already in jail for charges, was interrogated in Adiala Jail during his physical remand period.
It is pertinent to mention here that the Islamabad High Court (IHC) acquitted former prime minister Imran Khan and PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi in the cipher case.
IHC Chief Justice Aamir Farooq and Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb announced the verdict on the pleas challenging the conviction in the cipher case.
In January this year, the PTI founder and the party’s vice-chairman were sentenced to 10 years each in prison in a cipher case.
However, the two are not expected to be released from prison due to Imran’s sentences in the Toshakhana and Iddat cases while Qureshi has been arrested in recent May 9 cases.
