Islamabad: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) will hear the plea for placing the name of former prime minister Imran Khan and ex-ministers on the Exit Control List (ECL) tomorrow (April 11).
The petition has been filed by Molvi Iqbal Haider advocate.
The applicant requested the IHC to place the names of Imran Khan, Fawad Chaudhry and Shah Mehmood Qureshi, former deputy speaker Qasim Suri and Asad Majeed on the ECL.
The petitioner pleaded with the high court to order an investigation into the Imran Khan’s allegations regarding the US conspiracy against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government.
Threat letter
Imran Khan had claimed on March 27 that the opposition’s no-trust move is part of an alleged “foreign-funded conspiracy” hatched against his government over his refusal to have Pakistan’s foreign policy be influenced from abroad.
He had made the revelations at his party’s power show titled Amr Bil Maroof event at Parade Ground in Islamabad.
The prime minister had claimed that foreign funds are being used in ongoing attempts to topple the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government. The premier had said that his govt was threatened via a letter which he kept as evidence with him. “I am ready to show the letter off the record if someone is suspicious about it.”
Later, Imran Khan had openly held the US responsible for the “foreign conspiracy” to overthrow his government.
