Police arrest several lawyers protesting outside Lahore High Court
|
 [GEO.TV] Police arrested several lawyers as their protest at the GPO Chowk near Lahore High Court intensified on Wednesday.
The lawyers are demonstrating against the division of civil courts and terrorism cases against their colleagues.
The Lahore High Court Bar Association has denied conducting negotiations with the police.
On the other hand, lawyers have kicked out petitioners from the courtroom of Justice Anwar-ul-Haq Pannu.
Speaking with Geo News, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Operations Faisal Kamran said the police will continue to show restraint, but will take action according to the law if there is a violation from the lawyers.
"The police are showing maximum patience and restraint," he said, adding that the police only used tear gas after lawyers pelted stones at them.
"One of our SHO and one constable has been injured," he said.
The DIG Operations said there are at least 2,000 personnel for the security of the high court.
