LAHORE: Lahore High Court (LHC) while calling arguments on next hearing on maintainability of the petition against non provision of complete security to PTI founder in jail has remarked PTI founder has earlier been attacked too and we cannot afford any further big incident.
The petition came up for hearing before Chief Justice (CJ) Malik Shahzad Ahmad Khan of LHC for hearing on Friday.
Advocate General (AG) Punjab Khalid Ishaq while raising the objection over maintainability of the petition said he will summon report on security concerns of PTI founder despite having objection on petition. May he be PTI founder or Allah Ditta their security is our responsibility.
CJ LHC Malik Shahzad Ahmad Khan remarked we can not afford any major accident further. First Liaqat Ali Khan was martyred and then Benazir Bhutto was martyred. PTI founder has earlier been attacked too. Check it he has security concerns at what level.
AG Punjab said this petition can be heard in Rawalpindi bench and not on principal seat.
The court while directing counsel for PTI founder to give arguments on the maintainability of the petition on next hearing adjourned the hearing of the case till April 3.
