LHC set to hear Maryam Nawaz ECL case on 15th

Author: DNA

The Lahore High Court (LHC) has fixed the plea of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz, seeking removal of her name from the exit control list (ECL), for hearing on January 15.

A two-member bench of the LHC led by Justice Tariq Abbasi will hear the case. The bench hearing the case earlier was dissolved due to vacations of Justice Ali Baqir Najfi.

On December 24 last year, the federal cabinet had decided not to remove the name of Maryam Nawaz from the exit control list. The federal cabinet during its session held under the chair of Prime Minister Imran Khan had decided not to remove Maryam Nawaz’s name from the no-fly list while approving the recommendation forwarded by the sub-committee on ECL.

The PML-N leader in her petition said that the LHC had ordered the federal cabinet to decide on removing her name from the ECL but it decided not to remove her name from the list. She pleaded that her father Nawaz Sharif’s health is deteriorating and he is under medical treatment abroad. “Being a daughter, his care is my responsibility,” she said, and pleaded to the court to issue an order for removal of her name from the ECL.
