Dr Yasmin Rashid Files Appeals Against Convictions in May 9 Cases

Lahore: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Dr Yasmin Rashid has filed appeals in the Lahore High Court challenging her convictions in three cases related to the May 9 incidents.

In her petitions, Dr Yasmin Rashid requested the court to set aside the sentences, arguing that the trial court awarded punishments unlawfully and in haste without properly examining the facts of the cases.

She further pleaded that the sentences in all three May 9 cases be suspended until the final decision on the appeals. Dr Yasmin Rashid urged the court to declare the convictions null and void and grant her relief during the pendency of the appeals.

The appeals have been filed in cases registered at Gulberg, Nasirabad, and Race Course police stations.
