LHC bars AAG Khawar Bhatti from entering court

LAHORE  – The Lahore High Court (LHC) has on Monday barred Additional Advocate General Khawar Ikram Bhatti, who slapped a police official on the occasion of hearing of Maryam Nawaz and her husband Captain (r) Safdar in Islamabad’s accountability court, from appearing in his court.

The LHC judge Justice Ebadur Rehman Lodhi barred Additional Advocate General Khawar Ikram Bhatti from appearing in his court.

The LHC judge remarked that it is not good tradition of a government lawyer slapping a police official, adding that the government lawyers are employee of the state and not any party’s.

The judge also asked to appoint a non political lawyer in his court.
