Cases Against Ali Amin Gandapur

Earlier in the day, the Peshawar High Court ordered the federal government to provide details of cases against Gandapur.

A division bench of the high court comprising Justice Shakeel Ahmed and Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim heard a petition of KP Chief Minister Gandapur seeking details of cases against him.

This problem has not yet been resolved? Justice Shakeel Ahmed was questioned during the hearing. To which, counsel Arshad Ahmed said that problems still persist, and we do not know the cases registered in Punjab.

Get bail if involved in any case in Punjab, Justice Shakeel Ahmed said.

Gandapur’s lawyer said that if provided with details they would go to court, but they still have not provided with it and nothing has been shared in writing till now.

FIA’s Director Legal Abdul Rehman said that there are two inquiries against Gandapur in D.I. Khan.

He is chief minister of the province and the citizens of the province have reposed confidence in him, Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim said, adding that the people have voted for him and now he is running the province.

It is unlikely that you could not provide him with details. Provide details of the cases lodged against him, to the petitioner, the bench ordered.
