Two people have been arrested by Lahore High Court security men for manhandling a judge and threatening his opposite party's lawyers with a handgun and a dagger. The incident happened when one of the accused, identified as Bilal Bashir, got furious with Justice Chaudhry Mushtaq Ahmad dismissed a habeas corpus petition by him for returning his wife from her parents' home.
The judge ruling came because the woman said she wished to go to her parents' home. Although Bashir's accomplices, who were also involved in the court brawl, attempted to evade the court security men and lawyers, police managed to arrest them.
