LAHORE (Dunya News) – Lahore High Court (LHC) ordered Federal Investigation Bureau (FIA) on Thursday not to arrest Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Shahbaz Gill.

Justice Tariq Saleem Sheikh ordered him to appear immediately before the court and approved a protective bail till January 24 with a surety bond of Rs50,000. The court also demanded copies of relevant registered cases.
The Justice remarked that Shahbaz Gill could reach out to the court till January 24.

The court issued a notice to Inspector General Police (IGP) and others in this regard for 12th January.
