According to details made available with MM News, Advocate Azhar Siddique filed the contempt plea on behalf of Fawad Chaudhary’s relative Nabeel Shehzad, taking grounds that the LHC ordered some three three times to present former federal minister Fawad Chaudhary before court but Islamabad police did not present him.
🙏توہین عدالت🙏
عدالت کے احکامات کے باوجود فواد چوہدری کو پیش کیوں نہیں کیا گیا، IG اسلام آباد اور IG پنجاب کے علاوہ اور کون کون افسران اس سازش میں شامل تھے، حقائق سے پردہ اٹھانے کیلئے توہین عدالت کی درخواست لاہور ہائیکورٹ میں دائر کردی گئی، قانون دان اظہر صدیق. pic.twitter.com/HDxrKQ2Uv4
