The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has filed an appeal in the IHC seeking cancellation of the post-arrest bail of Lakhvi. Hearing the appeal, a division bench of the IHC on Tuesday asked authorities to provide the record of the Mumbai attack case in two weeks.
The record of the case is currently with an Islamabad-based Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) which was holding the trial of Lakhvi and other accused arrested in the case. Seven LeT suspects — Lakhvi, Abdul Wajid, Mazhar Iqbal, Hamad Amin Sadiq, Shahid Jamil Riaz, Jamil Ahmed and Younis Anjum — are facing charges of abetment to murder, attempted murder, planning and executing the Mumbai attack. The FIA in its appeal argued that it has enough evidence against Lakhvi and his post-arrest bail should be cancelled so that he can be re-arrested and probed.
