PAK-LAKHVI 2LST

Lakhvi's counsel Khwaja Sultan has also said his
client is not satisfied with the judge of the anti-terrorism
court in Rawalpindi who is conducting the trial.
The LeT commander was indicted with six others – Zarar
Shah, Abu al-Qama, Hamad Amin Sadiq, Shahid Jamil Riaz, Jamil
Ahmed and Younas Anjum – for planning and helping execute the
assault on India's financial hub in November 2008 that killed
nearly 180 people.
Their trial is being conducted within Rawalpindi's
Adiala Jail for security reasons.
The anti-terrorism court was to begin recording
evidence against them at the last hearing on January 16 but
was unable to do so because of the application filed by Lakhvi
in the Lahore High Court.
Lakhvi has filed another application in the
Rawalpindi-based bench of the Lahore High Court challenging
the anti-terrorism court's dismissal of his plea for
acquittal. Observers believe Lakhvi's applications are aimed
at delaying his trial, which has entered a crucial phase. PTI
