PTI’s Pervaiz Elahi moves SC against his physical remand

F.P. Report

LAHORE: Former Punjab chief minister and PTI President Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi has moved to the Supreme Court to challenge the decision of his physical remand.

Elahi filed a petition in the Supreme Court challenging the decision of his physical remand by a sessions judge and the Lahore High Court through his counsel Amir Saeed Ran on Saturday.

The former chief minister took a stance that the judicial magistrate discharged him in a case registered by the anti-corruption establishment and rejected the plea for his physical remand. But a sessions court judge and the LHC accepted the ACE’s plea seeking his physical remand.

The PTI president prayed that the physical remand is against his fundamental rights. He said that he would be under extreme mental stress and his life will be in danger, if the court grants his physical remand. He implored to the Supreme Court to annul the decision of his physical remand.
