In connection with the Mashal Khan murder case, an Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Abbottabad on Tuesday started reviewing the video footage.An ATC judge was hearing the case inside the heavily guarded Haripur central jail, reported Dawn. Moreover, the investigation officer of the case also appeared before the judge and submitted video recordings of the lynching. “The visuals were important enough to prove the role of the accused in the ghastly murder,” the lawyer claimed. As of yet, 48 witnesses have recorded their statements in connection with the case. It is crucial to note that in July, Peshawar High Court (PHC) Chief Justice Yahya Afridi had ordered the transfer of the murder case from Mardan to an ATC in Haripur jail after Khan’s father requested the move fearing his “influential adversaries”.
