LAHORE – New developments reported from the Lahore High Court over the Azadi March.

Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday has conducted hearing on the constitutional petition filed against Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl’s (JUI-F) anti-government ‘Azadi March’.

During the proceedings, the court has sought replies from provincial and federal governments within a week and also directed the concerned authorities to submit explanation over JUI-F Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s anti-government ‘force’.

The plaintiff, in his petition, adopted the stance that constitutional government cannot be dissolved before completing its five year tenure. Maulana Fazlur Rehman has formed private army for protecting his Azadi March, he claimed.

He further demanded the court to stop JUI-F activists’ private army from holding illegal sit-in in the federal capital, Islamabad.
