She referred to 2018, saying, “The accountability that was assumed by Khosa and Saqib Nisar back in 2018 has now been adopted by the current bench.”

    Imran Khan urges masses to attend Minar-e-Pakistan power show despite hurdles

    Canada Global (Web News) To prevent tonight’s public gathering of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) at Minar-e-Pakistan, the relevant authorities have closed a number of routes, including entry and departure points, in the capital of Punjab (Saturday).

    Elections in Punjab have been postponed owing to financial and security concerns, but the political show goes on nonetheless because the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has given its permission to postpone elections.

    Parking trucks with shipping containers have blocked all access roads to the Minar-e-Pakistan, and the two main entry and exit points, the Ravi Bridge and Thokar Niaz Baig, have been made impassible to vehicles. For commuters who left earlier in the day for their jobs and places of employment, the steps to stop the political gathering created obstacles.

    Containers have been positioned at several locations, including the railway station, Bansawala Bazaar, and Shah Alam Market.

    Imran Khan, the chairman of the PTI and a former prime minister, is upbeat about his successful power show despite the traffic limitations. He predicted on Twitter that the PTI’s sixth gathering, which would take place tonight at Minar-i-Pakistan, “will break all records.”

    In response to the letter the president had sent to the prime minister, he suggested that the president write a letter to Imran Khan asking him to demonstrate his sincerity in the Toshakhana and foreign funding issues.

  • Imran Khan granted relief in judge threat case

    Imran Khan granted relief in judge threat case

    Canada Global (Web News) A district and sessions court changed Imran Khan’s arrest warrant from being non-bailable to being bailable on Friday in relation to allegations that he threatened a female magistrate while speaking to a crowd of people last year.

    Further Sessions The judgement was delivered by Judge Faizan Haider Gilani after being reserved earlier in the day. Judge rejected the PTI’s petition for an extension and suspension of the arrest warrant.

    Before the judge reserved his or her decision, the special prosecutor Rizwan Abbasi and the former prime minister’s attorney Gohar Ali had presented their cases.

    Mr. Ali requested an extension and suspension of the arrest warrants until his client’s appearance in the Toshakhana case before a court in Islamabad on March 30. The PTI attorney declared he will submit a request to modify the dates of the arrest warrants. The date for arrest warrants is March 29, therefore it’s odd that you’re asking for March 30, the court observed.

    Arguments should be made on a petition asking for the arrest warrants to be suspended, the prosecutor said. The prosecutor said that Mr. Khan never showed up for the hearing on the threat case when the judge questioned whether he had ever appeared in court. He said that the PTI chairman’s power of attorney had not even been presented on his behalf.

    The judge reserved his decision following the hearing and is expected to make it public soon.

  • PTI to approach Supreme Court against ECP for postponing election in Punjab

    PTI to approach Supreme Court against ECP for postponing election in Punjab

    Canada Global (Web News) Leaders of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) declared on Thursday that the party would appeal the Punjab election’s postponement decision to the Supreme Court (SC).

    The decision was made after the SC ordered the electoral watchdog to hold polls in Punjab and KP within 90 days following the dissolution of provincial assemblies. The election was originally set for April 30 but was postponed by the ECP until October 8. Punjab and KP assemblies were dissolved on Jan 14 and Jan 18 respectively.

    Asad Umar, the leader of the PTI, mockingly claimed that it was merely coincidental that the ECP announced the postponement hours after Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah had stated his desire to hold elections immediately in the nation during a joint parliamentary session on Wednesday. He continued, “The decision is unlawful, and we will challenge it.

    He added that the PTI had already filed a contempt petition against KP governor Haji Ghulam Ali and that the party’s attorney, Ali Zafar, had been working on the petition. “The PTI will host a large gathering at Minar-e-Pakistan where it would also express solidarity with the SC for preserving the constitution”, he added.

    He continued saying that the party had scaled up preparation for the rally adding that the PTI senators will present their viewpoint completely at a joint session of the senate slated to be convened on Monday. “The party will also seek in the petition that the polls in Punjab be held on April 30,” he continued.

    Fawad Chaudhry claimed that Pakistan Day was a violation of the constitution and mentioned that 96 bar organisations had protested the ECP’s decision. The PML-N has a history of criticising the judiciary, he said, and the SC was assaulted during the joint parliamentary session on Wednesday.

    He pointed out that former chief minister of Punjab Hamza Shehbaz received bail on Sunday without showing up in court and added that law minister Azam Nazir Tarar was a lawyer of the devil. He continued, “Before, Mr. Tarar was a man [of good character].

    After the Taraweeh prayers on Saturday night, he stated that the PTI rally will begin and last until sehri on Sunday. He continued, “We applaud the government’s choice to establish a JIT and we anticipate that JIT will operate independently.

    Stating that elections in Punjab were expected to take place on April 30 and that both the populace and the SC needed to protect the constitution. The SC must defend the constitution above all things, he continued, and I am aware that judges are being threatened and blackmailed, he added.

    The court denied the NAB lawyer’s request for more time to write his response to the case while asking him to produce the report as soon as possible.

    The NAB counsel claimed that he should be given a copy of the petition so he can submit the reply after the court noted that he was only supposed to present the list of cases filed against Mr. Khan.

    Mr. Siddique stated that he had written to the NAB on February 17 requesting the list of cases, and that it was his right to be aware of the total number of cases brought against Mr. Khan.
