Summary The petition was filed by Haroon Rasheed Ghazi.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Islamabad High Court (IHC) Friday reserved its decision on a petition seeking to put former president Pervez Musharraf’s name on exit control list (ECL).

Petitioner in Abdul Rasheed Ghazi murder case, Haroon Rasheed stated that Musharraf’s name should be put in the ECL to stop him from going abroad as like Hussain Haqqani he would also not return to face the cases against him. The petitioner also prayed that the interior ministry be directed to put his name in the ECL.

Haroon Rasheed Ghazi is the son of the slain Lal Masjid cleric Maulana Abdul Rashid Ghazi.

Ghazi had claimed that the Aabpara police station in Islamabad was investigating Musharraf for ordering the Lal Masjid operation in 2007, and therefore he should be barred from leaving the country.
