The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday disposed of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) social activist Sanam Javed’s release application by declaring her arrest illegal.
IHC Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb heard the petition filed by Sanam Javed’s father.
Attorney General Mansoor Usman Awan and Sanam Javed’s father’s counsel Barrister Mian Ali Ishfaq appeared before the court today. Sanam Javed was also present in the court.
Attorney general informed the court that Sanam Javed wouldn’t be arrested in any case. He added that Balochistan police hadn’t requested a transitory remand of Sanam Javed.
“Sanam Javed is free and she can move in her native province freely,” Attorney General Mansoor Awan stated.
Justice Miangul Hassan remarked that, “I witnessed on the internet, Sanam Javed used inappropriate language.”
Justice inquired from the petitioner’s counsel, “Do you guarantee that Sanam Javed will not use inappropriate language again.”
Counsel Mian Ishfaq assured the court that Sanam Javed wouldn’t use inappropriate language in future.
Consequently, IHC dismissed Sanam Javed release petition declaring her arrest illegal.
