A Pakistani court on Tuesday ordered the registration of a murder case against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, his brother and Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif and 19 others for their alleged role in the killing of 14 supporters of fiery anti-government cleric Tahirul Qadri here.
The lahore High Court dismissed petitions of three federal ministers of the Nawaz Sharif Government against a sessions court’s order with a direction to lodge a murder case on the application of Qadri’s Pakistan Awami Tahreek without delay.
