ISLAMABAD:

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Monday suspended the decision to place eight family members of a citizen on the Exit Control List (ECL) following his recovery.

Justice Babar Sattar of the IHC questioned the interior secretary, stating that no working paper had been produced to justify placing the family on the ECL under court orders. The court instructed the authorities to submit an affidavit along with relevant facts supporting the decision.

The interior secretary informed the court that the cabinet's sub-committee had provided the details regarding the matter.
