Lahore: An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in the provincial capital turned down the bail petitions of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder on Wednesday.

The PTI chief has already been incarcerated at the Adiala jail since August last year in eight cases related to May 9 violence, including the Jinnah House attack.

ATC Judge Manzar Ali Gul announced the reserved judgment, dismissing the bail pleas of the ousted prime minister.

The cases included charges related to the Jinnah House and Askari Tower attacks, arson and vandalism at Shadman police station, and the burning of police vehicles at Rahat Bakery Chowk and Zaman Park.
