LAHORE: A plea to cancel bail given to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif has been set for hearing by a Lahore court on April 04.
The court issued notices to Shehbaz Sharif for the next hearing and said in its written order that the plea to cancel bail will be heard in the next hearing on interim bail.
The written verdict was issued by the special judge (central) on a plea filed by Federal Investigation Agency (FIA).
The court in its verdict said that an interim bail plea is being fixed for April 04 and issuing any directive without listening to the counsel of the suspect will be inappropriate.
Yesterday, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry claimed that he will be appointed as the new Law Minister, and requesting the courts to suspend Shehbaz Sharif and Humza Shehbaz’s bails would be his first action.
Fawad Chaudhry while talking to the media on Friday said that Shahbaz Shareef and Hamza Shahbaz’s dreams would be shattered. He added that the people who are on bail from courts will not be able to become Prime minister of Pakistan and Chief Minister Punjab.
Today, after taking the office of the Law Minister, Fawad Chaudhry ordered set up a commission to investigate the ‘foreign conspiracy’ behind ousting Prime Minister Imran Khan.
The Cabinet Division in Islamabad has also issued a notification confirming the minister’s additional designation.
