LAHORE: An anti-terrorism court handed over four facilitators of the Lahore Mall Road suicide bomber to the Counter-Terrorism Department on 30-day physical remand.
Anwarul Haq, Fazlur Rehman, Waheedullah and Abu Hurraira were presented before the ATC judge by CTD officials.
Contingents of law enforcement personnel cordoned off the premises, as the officers inside sought the physical remand of the accused which was granted by the judge.
Fifteen people, including senior police officers, were killed and more than 85 others were injured in the deadly explosion that ripped through a protest by chemists outside the Punjab Assembly on February 13.
The banned Jamaatur Ahrar had claimed the responsibility of the attack. The outfit had claimed the Easter bombing in Lahore last year that had killed more than 70 people in Gulshan-e-Iqbal Park.
