Karachi: An anti-terrorism Court (ATC) judge Qamruddin Bohra has taken notice of the Shershah scrap market killing incident shortly after taking the charge of ATC on Thursday.
The judge has summoned investigation officer Meer AslamĀ who has been probing the case.
Sources said that the Judge asked why the nine accusd were produced before the administrative judge of the ATC.
Earlier on Wednesday, the case took a new turn on the complainant in the case, who nominated nine of the 17 accused with their parentage, refused to identify them before the administrative judge of anti-terrorism court.
The judge, keeping in view the denial of the complainant, ordered the release of the suspects on bail.
According to police, 13 people were killed and six injured on October 19 last year when armed men opened fire on shopkeepers for their refusal to give them extortions.
