The Lahore High Court on Tuesday barred shifting Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Aliya Hamza to any other city from District Jail Gujranwala.
LHC judge Justice Ali Baqir Najafi delivered the written order during a hearing on the petition of the PTI leader’s husband Hamza Jameel.
The court ordered the Punjab government and Attorney's Office to present paragraph-wise comments and report on the next hearing.
Aliya Hamza’s husband filed a petition in court arguing that his wife faces multiple politically motivated cases. According to Jameel, Alia Hamza is repeatedly named in new cases each time she secures bail in existing ones.
In response to the petition, the court has been asked to furnish the details of all registered cases against Aliya Hamza. Additionally, the petition seeks an order for protective bail to ensure she is not unjustly imprisoned.
The court’s intervention aims to provide legal protection for Aliya Hamza while ensuring transparency in the cases filed against her. The legal battle continues as the court reviews the details of the allegations and the legitimacy of the charges.
