An anti terrorism court (ATC) Monday adjourned hearing of Kot Radha Kishan couple lynching case till January 6 and summoned further witnesses.
ATC-II Judge Khawaja Zafar Iqbal heard the matter and recorded statement of two witnesses who appeared before the court on being summoned.
As many as 106 accused had been indicted in the case. The police had alleged that brick kiln owner Yousaf Gujjar, Maulvi Mohammad Hussain, Maulvi Arshad Baloch and Maulvi Noorul Hassan were involved in stirring provocative speech against the couple which led to the assembly of a mob.
A mob on November 4, 2014, had beaten to death Shama and her spouse Shehzad in a village near Kot Radha Kishan and later burnt their bodies in the furnace of a brick kiln, where the couple worked.
