LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) MNA Rana Jamil said on Friday that legal action will be taken against Chief Justice Saqib Nisar if any harm is caused to him or his family due to CJP’s directive to withdraw VIP security.
“If something were to happen to me or my family, then I demand that a first information report gets registered against the chief justice,” Jamil told fellow lawmakers.
On April 22, thousands of officials deployed on the security of individuals without entitlement were withdrawn after Justice Nisar gave a 24-hour deadline to the inspector generals of all the provinces to implement the withdrawal orders.
In Punjab, security of 1,853 personalities was withdrawn, calling back 4,610 officials. In a report submitted in SC’s Lahore registry on Saturday, Punjab IGP Capt (r) Arif Nawaz revealed that a total of 4,610 police guards had been withdrawn from non-entitled persons.
Jamil, who was kidnapped in 2014 and later recovered after 6 months, responded to CJP’s verdict saying that if anything happens to him or his family, he will lodge an FIR against Justice Nisar since his verdict has left him and his family “exposed”.
The lawmaker added that he was kidnapped in broad daylight and was recovered only due to the efforts of Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
