A Pakistani anti-terror court today adjourned the Mumbai attacks case for a week after hearing arguments by prosecution and defence lawyers. LeT operations commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi and six others are suspects in the case. There was no official word on proceedings due to a gag order issued by the court. PTI quoting sources reports, Judge Baqir Ali Rana, who is conducting the trial behind closed doors at Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, scheduled the next hearing for October 17.Earlier, both sides presented their arguments before the judge. Lawyers representing the seven suspects told the court that the evidence against their clients was insufficient to indict them. However, the prosecution said, it had enough evidence against the suspects, including five members of the LeT. The sources said that the suspects are expected to be formally indicted at the next hearing.
