Maryam Nawaz approaches LHC for permission to go for Umrah
The PML-N leader had been ordered to furnish two surety bonds, each worth Rs10 million, deposit an additional Rs70 million, and surrender her passport to secure her release.
Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice-President Maryam Nawaz approached the Lahore High Court (LHC) for permission to go for Umrah.
An LHC bench comprising Justice Shahbaz Ali Rizvi and Justice Anwarul Haq Pannu will hear the petition of Maryam Nawaz for permission to go for Umrah on Thursday (today).
Maryam Nawaz in her petition stated that she had surrendered her passport to the LHC, adding: “I want to go to Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah but cannot do so because my passport is surrendered at the LHC.”
She pleaded with the court to allow her once to go for Umrah and issue orders for temporarily returning her passport.
It merits a mention here that the LHC while granting bail to Maryam Nawaz in Chaudhry Sugar Mills case had ordered her to surrender her passport.
In November 2019, the Lahore High Court (LHC) granted bail to Maryam Nawaz who was arrested earlier on August 8 in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills (CSM) case.
A two-member bench of the high court, comprising Justice Ali Baqar Najafi and Justice Sardar Ahmad Naeem, had announced the verdict.
The PML-N leader had been ordered to furnish two surety bonds, each worth Rs10 million, deposit an additional Rs70 million, and surrender her passport to secure her release.
