LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) has ordered the government to immediately release PTI leader Sanam Javed in the Gujranwala case.
A two-judge bench headed by Justice Asjad Javed Gharal of the LHC issued a 14-page decision.
The court observed that he had repeatedly appointed the accused in the same cases as an investigating officer without evidence, which showed malice that revealed a deliberate attempt to defame and defeat the judicial system of the country.
The LHC directed the relevant authorities to send a copy of the judgment to IG Punjab and all deputy commissioners.
The court said that the Gujranwala case against Sanam Javed was fabricated and registered on the basis of malice and hence it is dismissed forthwith.
The court ordered PTI leader’s immediate release from jail.
