The clothes of one of the four accused were also torn, and the agitated lawyers raised slogans against Pakistan and demanded capital punishment for them.
The four persons — main accused Riaz Akhtari and Ghouse Mohammad, and two others namely Mohsin and Asif — were produced in a special court here amid tight security arrangements. The court sent the four to police remand till July 12.
There was heavy security deployment on the premises, but as the accused were being taken out of the court, the group of lawyers attacked them before police personnel somehow managed to hustle them into a waiting prisoner transport vehicle.
