Islamabad: A District and Session Court in Islamabad on Monday issued an arrest warrant for former Sindh Governor Imran Ismail in a case relating to violence and vandalism during PTI’s 2022 “Azadi March”.
Ismail, who shared ways with PTI in May 2023, was nominated in a case of violence registered at Islamabad’s Barakahu police station.
The court’s magistrate Mubashir Hassan Chishti issued the order and instructed Ismail being arrested and produced in court.
The order was issued after Ismail could not appear before the court in the case.
In November 2022, ‘Azadi March’ was led by Imran Khan with other PTI leaders and followers performed in several cities in Pakistan. The march ended with Khan’s announcement to dissolve the assemblies.
PTI began its long march against the federal capital on October 28, 2022 in an attempt to force the coalition government into early elections.
