Islamabad:
The High Court of Islamabad (IHC) ordered Tuesday the ablation of the name of Aleema Khan, the sister of Pakistan Tehreek-e-insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, travel ban lists and ordered him to approach the court of first instance for the permission of traveling abroad.
The IHC also published a six -page judgment authorizing the advocacy of the head of the PTI Raoof Hasan for the withdrawal of his name from the travel prohibition list and also asked him to request authorization from the Court of First Instance to travel abroad.
The IHC judge Khadim Hussain Soomro, heard the petition of Aleema Khan. During the hearing, defenders Ali Bukhari, Khalid Yousuf Chaudhry and Niazullah Niazi appeared before the court in name of the petitioner.
The Court accepted the request and ordered the deletion of its name from the passport control list (PCL) and the provisional national identification list (PNIL). The court asked him to request permission from trips abroad from the court of first instance.
Meanwhile, the IHC judge Inmum Amin Minhas made his written decision, approving the petition of Raoof Hasan for the withdrawal of his name from the PCL. The judge said that a criminal case, pending or under investigation, did not justify the inclusion of the name of the petitioner in the PCL.
The court declared the order to include Hasan’s name in the PCL as illegal. He added that the petitioner was on bond in the case against him, but the state did not approach the court concerned for the cancellation of the deposit.
The court ordered the dismissal of the name of Hasan du PCL and ordered him to approach the court of first instance to travel abroad. The court also ordered the court of first instance to quickly decide the request in accordance with the law.
