IHC allows Ali Amin Gandapur to meet Imran Khan without request

Islamabad High Court dismisses Ali Amin Gandapur's request to meet Imran Khan, stating no restrictions are in place.

The Islamabad High Court has disposed of the request from the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Ali Amin Gandapur, to meet the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, as reported by Express News.

Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir of the Islamabad High Court heard the petition regarding Gandapur's request. The court dismissed the request, noting that there were no restrictions on his meeting.

Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir remarked, “You can check on this; no further requests should come here.” The Deputy Superintendent of Adiala Jail mentioned that coordinators had been appointed, and there are no restrictions on Ali Amin Gandapur meeting Imran Khan. He added, “The coordinator, Intazar Panjotha, has unfortunately been kidnapped.”

The Deputy Superintendent informed the court that besides him, Barrister Gohar and Salman Akram Raja were also involved.

The coordinators usually finalize the list beforehand, and meetings still take place in the jail.

Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir inquired why restrictions were imposed on meetings.

The Deputy Superintendent of Adiala Jail responded that the Ministry of Interior enforces such restrictions due to security concerns.
