Sanam Javed cautioned over media posts

Sanam's lawyer assured that Sanam will not use inappropriate language

ISLAMABAD:

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday disposed of a petition filed for the recovery of PTI activist Sanam Javed after the attorney general for Pakistan gave assurances that she would not be arrested in any case and that the Balochistan police would not press for her transition remand.

IHC Justice Miangul Hasan Aurangzeb heard the case. The court said that the petitioner had expressed satisfaction with the assurances provided by the AGP, as it disposed of the petition. The court said that Sanam Javed should be very careful while issuing statements on social media.

The judge said that he had seen on the Internet that she used inappropriate language in her social media posts. He asked her lawyer whether he guaranteed that she would not engage in inappropriate talk in the future. The lawyer assured that she would take a cautious approach.

Talking to media later, Sanam Javed’s lawyer said that the AGP had assured that Sanam Javed would not be arrested in any case anywhere in the country and the first information report (FIR) registered in Balochistan would be withdrawn in two days.
