A special magistrate in Multan, on Thursday, granted bail to former PPP lawmaker Ali Musa Gillani and other Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) leaders.
Gillani, son of former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gillani, was arrested following a rally ahead of the upcoming PDM congregation.
The Multan Police, in a statement, said a case was registered against Ali Musa Gilani for holding a rally today despite the ban. “We have nominated 30 leaders of the PPP and the PML-N in the FIR,” they added, noting that at least 50 other unidentified political workers were booked as well.
The opposition is planning a public gathering in the city on November 30. Although the district administration has twice denied permission to hold rallies citing coronavirus measures.
