The Punjab government, led by CM Maryam Nawaz, has challenged the Lahore High Court’s decision to discharge PTI leader Sanam Javed in the Supreme Court.
The Lahore High Court had ordered Javed’s release due to insufficient evidence related to the May 9 events. However, she was re-arrested in connection with other cases filed across multiple cities.
Government’s Argument
The Punjab government argues that the High Court’s decision was premature and seeks a review by the Supreme Court to ensure a thorough examination of the charges against Javed.
Implications
This appeal highlights the ongoing legal challenges faced by PTI leaders amidst the current political climate. The Supreme Court’s decision will determine whether the High Court’s ruling will be upheld or overturned, potentially impacting the broader legal landscape for political cases in Pakistan.
