Islamabad:
The Superior Court of Islamabad has sought answers from the Secretary of the Senate, the Federal Government and others in a petition that seeks the production order of Senator of PTI Ijaz Chaudhry for the session.
The president of the Interim Supreme Court of IHC, Sarfaraz Dogar, heard the request of the senator. The petitioner said he was arrested under MPO on May 9, 2023, which came to the end of the order of the Superior Court of Lahore. However, he was arrested in a false case of May 9. “I am languishing in Lahore prison, while I have the right to attend the Senate session as a senator,” added the petitioner.
He prayed to the court to issue his production order for each session of the Senate and the joint meeting of the Parliament.
The interim IHC CJ asked the Babar Awan petitioner if the case enters the court jurisdiction. Awan gave references to Muhammad Khan Junejo and Javed Hashmi cases, adding that he falls under the jurisdiction of the IHC.
