An anti-terrorism court has given death sentence to four militants of outlawed Pakistani Taliban for an attack on country’s powerful spy agency ISI’s office in which 15 people were killed.
The ATC-I Multan handed down the penalty to Abdul Raheem, Hafiz Suleman, Sajjad and Muhammad Afzal on 11 counts each, and 25-year imprisonment to their fifth accomplice Ijaz, on Tuesday.
All the five convicts belong to the banned terrorist group Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan.

Imran heckled Imran Khan and his newly-wed wife on Wednesday faced an embarrassing situation when grieving parents of the victims of the Peshawar school massacre booed and tried to stop him from entering the school premises, accusing him of politicising the tragedy and being busy with marriage plans.
The protest took place when the Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician along with his new wife Reham Khan arrived at the Army Public School to meet the students.

The crowd also scuffled with the police but did not let Khan and his wife enter by the main gate. They were later ushered through a back gate to meet the children.
