The verdict was delivered by ATC-I Malakand division Special Judge Shaukat Ahmad Khan.
The accused was to be physically detained for 30 days, per the Madyan police’s plea to the court.
Sections 302, 326, 353, 436, 427, 460, 341, 186, 148, and 149 of the Pakistan Penal Code as well as 7-ATA were utilized to book the accused.
The suspects listed in the FIR, however, were only given a 10-day remand by the court, subject to their pre- and post-arrest medical examinations.
On July 3, the accused’s production was mandated by the court.
A tourist was lynched to death on June 20 by an irate crowd for reportedly burning pages from the Holy Quran and accusing him of blasphemy. The Madyan police station was assaulted and set on fire by the furious mob, who then removed the suspects.
The accused was slain and his body was set on fire.
