LAHORE: A Lahore High Court (LHC) judge on Monday sent a petition challenging the detention of fashion designer Khadija Shah to LHC Chief Justice Muhammad Ameer Bhatti.
The judge requested the chief justice to schedule it for another bench, following the disclosure by a provincial law officer that Shah’s contempt plea was already pending before Justice Ali Baqar Najafi. Justice Shehram Sarwar Chaudhry heard the petition filed by Jahanzaib Amin, Khadija Shah’s husband. The petitioner contested his wife’s detention, asserting that it occurred in violation of the law. On November 17, Deputy Commissioner Lahore Rafia Haider had issued a 30-day detention order for Shah under the Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) ordinance.
Petition stated that it had repeatedly been denied permission to hold rallies in Lahore on political grounds
