      <title>May 9 cases: Court orders property confiscation of convicted PTI leaders</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330428887/may-9-cases-court-orders-property-confiscation-of-convicted-pti-leaders</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Lahore has ordered the confiscation of properties belonging to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Dr Yasmin Rashid, Omar Sarfraz Cheema, Mehmood-ur-Rasheed, and Ejaz Chaudhry after convicting them in two cases related to the May 9 arson and rioting.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On Monday, ATC Judge Manzar Ali Gul announced verdicts in the Shadman Town police station arson case and the arson incident outside Rahat Bakery after holding a trial in Kot Lakhpat jail.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The court, in its verdict in both cases, sentenced the four PTI leaders to 10 years in prison and imposed a fine of Rs600,000 each.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Warrants have also been issued to send Dr Yasmin Rashid, Omar Sarfraz Cheema, Mahmood Rashid and Ijaz Chaudhry to jail.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The court clarified that their properties will be confiscated and taken into government custody.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cases against the PTI leaders were registered in Shadman and Sarwar Road police stations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The court, however, acquitted senior PTI leader and former foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi in both cases.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition, the court sentenced PTI Punjab chief organiser Aliya Hamza and Sanam Javed to 5 years in prison each in the Shadman Town police station torching case.&lt;/p&gt;
