LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League (PML-Q) chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain on Sunday met Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Parvez Elahi at Lahore Camp Jail.
As per media reports Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain held a second meeting with Pervaiz Elahi at the camp jail today. The PML-Q president once again offered Pervaiz Elahi to return to the political party.
The second meeting was held for 10 minutes in which he asked Pervaiz to mull over his offer, ARY News reported, adding that it cannot be said whether the meeting goes fruitful or not.
According to the well-placed sources, Shujaat’s son Chaudhry Salik Hussain and his brother Chaudhry Wajahat Hussain were also present during the meeting.
The Chaudhry brothers suggested Pervaiz to return to the political party. Chaudhry brothers, according to reports, are likely to hold another meeting in a few days.
Elahi was taken into custody by anti-corruption officials from near his residence in Lahore on June 1 in the Rs70 million corruption case related to the embezzlement of development funds allocated for the Gujrat district. Since then, the former Punjab chief minister was re-arrested multiple times after being released on the orders of the relevant courts.
Last month, Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, the head of the PML-Q, in a jail visit to Pervaiz Elahi, President of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), urged him to return back to his previous party.
