The petition has been filed by the PTI leader's wife

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Wife of PTI President and former chief minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi on Saturday filed a petition in Supreme Court seeking recovery of her husband.

The wife of Mr Elahi has challenged a decision of the Lahore High Court (LHC) to dispose of her petition regarding recovery of her husband as ineffective.

The former Punjab chief minister is currently in custody of the Islamabad police in a terrorism court registered against him on September 3. He was arrested shortly after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) ordered his release by suspending his detention under Maintenance Public Order.

The PTI leader’s wife has also pleaded apex court to stop the authorities from arresting him in any undisclosed case. She also asked SC to direct the authorities to produce the PTI leader before court.

Mr Elahi’s wife has made caretaker Punjab government, secretary home department and IGP Punjab respondents in the case.
