Liquor, arms recovery case:
A non-bailable arrest warrant issued for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur:-
Islamabad Local Court Judge Shaista Khan Kundi has issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur while rejecting his plea for exemption from attendance in the arms and liquor recovery case.
On Wednesday, Civil Judge Shaista Kundi began the hearing of the case against Ali Amin Gandapur in the case of smuggling of liquor and arms. A lawyer of the accused told the court that his client participated in the jirga called for the sake of law and order in Karam Agency. So he will not be able to appear in court today. He requested the court to approve the plea of exemption from the attendance of the accused for one day.
On the other hand, Ali Amin, another lawyer from Gandapur said that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has been flooded, so the Chief Minister is busy with relief activities.
The court expressed its displeasure at the statement of the lawyers and said that the statements of the accused’s lawyers do not match each other and it gives the impression that an attempt is being made to prolong the trial.
The court said that the case is in its final stages and the accused has to record his statement or the statement of Section 342 of Pakistan Penal Code related to this case.
Civil Judge Shaista Kundi said that the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will have his own engagements but the court also has to do its work.
The court has ordered SHO bhara Kahu to arrest the accused Ali Amin Gandapur on September 5 and produce him in the court.
It should be noted that a case was registered against the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ali Amin Gandapur in 2016 at the Bara Kahu police station, when he was going to Bani Gala to meet Imran Khan, when he was stopped by the policemen on the road, claimed to recover a bottle of liquor and weapons from their possession.
