KARACHI: High court disposes of Afaq’s petition


KARACHI, Sept 14: A division bench of High Court of Sindh on Wednesday disposed of a constitutional petition filed by Ms Akhlaq Jehan, mother of MQM-Haqiqi Chairman Afaq Ahmed.

Earlier, Advocate General Sindh, Superintendant and Deputy Superintendant, Central Prison Karachi (CPK) appearing before the bench, comprising Justice Ghulam Rabbani and Justice Azizullah M Memon, submitted that detenue was not being shifted and no orders have been received by the prison authorities.

The AG Sindh also assured that security would be beefed up to ensure safety of life of imprisoned/convicted leader.
