A two-member bench of the apex court comprising Justice Sardar Tariq Masood and Justice Sayyed Mazahar Ali Akbar Naqvi heard the case.

The accused were allegedly involved in attacking WAPDA employees in Bahawalnagar.

The counsel for the accused said WAPDA employees arrived with weapons which caused a quarrel.
