LAHORE:

A Gujrat court has quashed the arrest warrant and proclamation order against PTI leader Moonis Elahi in a murder case following an appeal filed by his mother Begum Qaisara Elahi.

The appeal was filed in Sessions Judge Saifullah Tarar’s court against the court order that declared Moonis Elahi as a declared perpetrator in a murder case as he skipped the court hearings.

The petitioner said in her petition that the murder case was registered on June 29 while Moonis Elahi had been out of the country since December 28, 2022. She alleged that the police with mala fide intentions implicated her son in the case.

Moreover, the plaintiff in the murder case Muhammad Akram and the witnesses Muhammad Asjad and Sajjad Ashraf presented their statements in the court and said that they did not suspect that Moonis Elahi was involved in the murder case. They asked the court to set aside the ruling against Moonis Elahi in the case as they believed he had nothing to do with the case. Taking into account the statements of the plaintiff and witnesses, the court quashed the arrest warrant and proclamation order against PTI leader Moonis Elahi.
