At this, Abbasi said that two suspects were appearing before the court.
The judge remarked that the prosecutor had maintained that there were no other suspects apart from these two.
Gill’s lawyer requested the court to postpone the hearing of the case, but the prosecutor asked the court to set the next hearing soon.
