Ishaq Dar challenges Accountability Court orders in IHC
Shares
ISLAMABAD: Former finance minister Ishaq Dar’s lawyer on Saturday challenged the accountability court’s issuance of non-bailable arrest warrants for Dar in the Islamabad High Court (IHC).
The petition, filed by Dar’s lawyer Qausain Faisal Mufti in the IHC, also challenged the accountability court’s declaring Dar an absconder in the case.
The petition requested that Dar be exempted from appearing in court due to his poor health. The petition said that before he fell ill, he would appear in court regularly.
The petition asked the IHC to allow someone else to represent the former finance minister in court so the accountability trial against him could proceed.
