The decision was made by Justice Amjad Rafique in a hearing where the former chief minister's cases were being addressed.


Lahore: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday stops police from arresting former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan-Tehreek-e-Insaf President Pervaiz Elahi in any hidden case.
In its ruling, the court instructed the police and the Anti-Corruption Establishment not to detain the accused in any pending case against him.
The decision was made by Justice Amjad Rafique in a hearing where the former chief minister's cases were being addressed.
Earlier, Jail authorities have rejected to release former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) president Pervaiz Elahi on July 12 despite a bail order secured in suspicious transactions case.
According to the jail staff, Pervaiz Elahi's release is not currently possible because neither surety bonds nor a robkar (mandamus) relating Pervaiz Elahi were presented to the banking court.
In a case involving questionable transactions, a financial court yesterday granted bail of current president of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and former Chief Minister of Punjab Pervaiz Elahi.
During the hearing, the banking court’s judge Aslam Gondal said that it would be unjust to keep Pervaiz Elahi in jail.
The PTI president's bail was later accepted by the banking court in the case brought by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA). It has been ordered that the PTI president produce surety bonds totaling Rs. 500,000.
The investigation officer's (IO) decision to deliver the case file outraged the court, which then issued a warrant for his arrest.
