Parvez Elahi’s arrest: LHC issues show-cause notice for contempt of court to Islamabad IG

The Lahore High Court (LHC) issued a show-cause notice for contempt of court to Islamabad Inspector General Dr Akbar Nasir Khan while hearing a plea for PTI President Parvez Elahi’s production in court.

On Friday, Islamabad police had re-arrested Elahi near his residence soon after the LHC had set him free with a restraining order against his possible arrest by an agency or preventive detention.

An Islamabad police team, assisted by Lahore police, had intercepted a white SUV near the FCC underpass in which Elahi was travelling with lawyer Sardar Latif Khosa to his house and dragged him into a white car with no licence plate.

Visuals of the arrest had gone viral on social media and were condemned by the Pakistan Bar Council among others.j
