A sessions court on Monday indicted former Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam (JUI) leader Mufti Azizur Rehman and his five sons in a case of sexually abusing a student of his madressah.
The cleric and his sons Ataur Rehman, Attiqur Rehman, Latifur Rehman, Altafur Rehman and Wasiur Rehman pleaded not guilty and decided to contest the trial.

Additional District and Sessions Judge Rana Rashid Ali directed the police to present the prosecution witnesses on Oct 18.
Mufti Aziz is still behind bars as his bail after arrest was dismissed by a judicial magistrate, while his sons had been released on bail.

The Mufti approached the sessions court against the denial of his bail where his petition was still pending.
