Earlier in the day, the Peshawar High Court ordered the federal government to provide details of cases against Ali Amin Gandapur.

A division bench of the high court comprises of Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim and Justice Shakeel Alhmed heard petition of KP Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur seeking details of cases against him.

“This problem has not yet resolved?” Justice Shakeel Ahmed questioned. “Problems still persist, we don’t know the cases registered in Punjab,” counsel Arshad Ahmed said.

“Get bail if involved in any case in Punjab,” Justice Shakeel said. “If they will provide us details than we will go to courts. They are not providing us details of cases, and nothing has been shared in writing till now,” Gandapur’s lawyer said.
