Illegal recruitment case: Elahi, Muhammad Khan's bail plea rejected

Lahore: The Anti-Corruption Court (ACC) of Lahore Wednesday rejected the bail application of former Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervez Elahi and his former principal secretary Muhammad Khan Bhatti in the case of illegal recruitment in the Punjab Assembly.

According to the details, Anti-Corruption Court Judge Arshad Hussain Bhutta pronounced the reserved verdict.

It is pertinent to note that the court had reserved its decision yesterday after the arguments of the lawyers were completed.

On March 19, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Pervez Elahi was not charged in two corruption cases as authorities at Adiala Jail Rawalpindi did not produce him before the respective courts citing medical reasons.
