Fawad Faces Illegal Land Case in Jhelum

Fawad Faces Illegal Land Case in Jhelum

 

The court, presided over by Justice Inam Amin Minhas, was informed by Deputy Attorney General Faisal Irfan during the hearing that the government had complied with its earlier directive to remove former lawmaker’s travel restrictions.

Fawad, accompanied by his lawyer Faisal Chaudhry, appeared before the court and expressed gratitude, stating, “Thank you very much to the court.”

During the hearing, Faisal Chaudhry humorously remarked to Justice Minhas, “Coming to you benefits us,” to which Fawad Chaudhry added, “You know where we’re going—we’re here to do opposition.”

Yesterday, in a land acquisition case, an Anti-Corruption Court in Rawalpindi issued bailable arrest warrants for former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry.

As per details, special Judge Anti-Corruption Khawar Rashid ordered Chaudhry’s arrest, directing authorities to present him before the court by June 30.

The case, filed by the Punjab Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE), pertains to allegations of illegal land acquisition for a private housing society in Jhelum’s Dina area along GT Road.

The former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader, who left the party in May 2023, is accused of misusing authority and facilitating the transfer of public land for the housing society, as per a First Information Report (FIR) lodged by ACE in April.

It is worth mentioning here that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) severed ties with Fawad, following directives from the party’s founder, Imran Khan.

According to details, Barrister Gohar met with PTI founder Imran Khan at Adiala Jail, where they discussed the country’s political situation, party affairs, and plans.
