The counsel Mian Zakir Hussain Advocate argued that inquiry has been initiated against petitioner without prior notice while added that MPA Jamsheed Mohmand belong to opposition party and it is carried out for political victimization.
The counsel added that Anti-Corruption did not filed charge sheet against Jamsheed Mohmand but it is initiated to harass the opposition MPA at Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly while the petitioner had approached PHC to obtain BBA.
The counsel informed that on last hearing the petitioner was reached late to court due to traffic issue and senior counsel was present before Supreme Court while PHC has withdrew BBA and added that Jamsheed Mohmand is willing to cooperate with Anti-corruption.
The counsel requested PHC to restore BBA of MPA because Jamsheed Mohmand is fearing that Anti-corruption will arrest him on his appearance while Additional Advocate General along with Investigation Officer appeared before court.
