Wagah border bombing

Lahore: A Pakistani anti-terrorism court on Wednesday handed down death sentence and 300 years imprisonment to three terrorists of the banned Jamaat-ul-Ahrar for their involvement in the 2014 Wagah border bombing that killed over 60 people.
Over 60 people, including women and children, were killed in the horrific suicide attack on November 2, 2014 at the Wagah border on the Pakistani side. The responsibility for the attack was claimed separately by the outlawed Jundullah and Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan’s splinter group Jamaat-ul-Ahrar.
“The Anti Terrorism Court in Lahore on Wednesday announced the verdict in the Wagah border bombings. It handed down death sentence to three suspects — Haseebullah, Saeed Jan Ghana and Hussainullah — on five counts and also gave them 300-year jail term and imposed a fine of 1 million Pakistani Rupee each,” a court official told PTI.
The court acquitted three other suspects giving them the benefit of doubt. (PTI)
