LAHORE – A big relief for PTI senior leader Chaudhary Parvez Elahi as the Lahore High Court ruled on Monday to remove his name and the names of his son Rasikh Elahi and daughter-in-law Zara Elahi from the Passport Control List (PCL).
Justice Shams Mahmood Mirza passed the order on a plea moved by Chaudhary Parvez Elahi.
Chaudhary Parvez Elahi through his counsel had submitted that placement of his name on the said list by the federal government was unlawful.
Parvez Elahi, also the President of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), had petitioned the court seeking the removal of their names to facilitate their international travel.
Earlier on Monday, he had also filed an application in an anti-corruption court seeking exemption from appearing in a case concerning alleged illegal recruitments in the Punjab Assembly.
