Hamza Shehbaz to appear before LHC today to seek bail petition

Opposition Leader in the Punjab Assembly Hamza Shehbaz
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and Opposition Leader in the Punjab Assembly Hamza Shehbaz will appear before the Lahore High Court today (Monday) in connection to his bail petition.

A two-judge bench headed by Justice Malik Bashir Ahmed Khan will hear the PML-N leader's bail petition.

Strict security arrangements have been made around the LHC premises ahead of the hearing. According to police sources, 568 policemen have been deployed while two superintendent police, six deputy superintendents and 10 inspectors are also on-duty.

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) carried out two successive raids on Friday and Saturday at PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif's Model Town residence to arrest Hamza.

On Saturday, the LHC issued a short order granting interim bail to Hamza until April 8.

The high court's written order stated that an interim protective bail has been granted to Hamza "in order to enable the petitioner to approach" the concerned bench for the hearing of a bail plea that was filed on April 4.

Advocate Amjad Pervez had appeared before the LHC on Hamza’s behalf and argued that Hamza had filed a request for interim bail.
