Lahore High Court Rawalpindi Bench consisting of Justice Khawaja Imtiaz Ahmad and Justice Ibadur Rehman extended bail for one day before arrest of Musa Gilani, son of former Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani and Federal Textile Minister Makhdoom Shahabuddin in the Ephedrine case on Monday.
While extending the bail, the court directed the counsels of the accused to appear before it on Tuesday with required preparation. The court observed that it wanted to decide the applications instead of giving extension in dates. As the court resumed hearing, it was informed that the lawyers were on strike and would not appear in cases on Monday.
Hearing of an application by the director of a private pharmaceutical company for bail was also adjourned till Wednesday.
