The Lahore High Court (LHC) has sought reply from the additional home secretary on the request of Qaisara Elahi, wife of former Punjab chief minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi, for a meeting with her incarcerated husband.
Justice Raheel Kamran on Monday heard the petition and issued a notice to the additional home secretary and ordered him to submit a reply on Tuesday.

The justice remarked that detention is not a punishment. The court would not allow the state to usurp the rights of the masses. State rules allow meeting of family with a person in jail. Justice Kamran questioned the public prosecutor how a meeting of a wife her husband would endanger the government. The judge asked him to review the rules. The public prosecutor claimed that the petitioner did not apply for a meeting with her husband. Later, the court adjourned the hearing for Tuesday.
