“So far we have filed charges against 13 accused in this case and one of them was arrested recently. Two more people will be nominated in the case soon,” Bal added.

The attack occurred in May 2021 when two men fired a grenade at the intelligence agency’s headquarters, damaging the building. The attack occurred late in the evening when no one was in the area.

The district court had also allowed the district police to treat a minor defendant in this case as an adult and his trial will be conducted in the district court and not in the juvenile court.
