Bar Associations of Hazara division Friday observed a complete strike against the assassination attempt of the chief of PTI Imran Khan. According to the details, the lawyers did not appear before the courts and all the cases were adjourned until the next hearing of the cases. The bar councils of the Hazara division on the call of the KP Bar Council boycotted the court proceedings all across the Hazara division. KP Bar Council also postponed the meeting of the Vice Chairman and members of the Judicial Commission which was scheduled on 5th November owing to security concerns and soon a new schedule for the meeting would be announced.

They further said that protest is a constitutional right of every citizen of this country and to stop them is a violation of the constitution.
