ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has ordered removal of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Shibli Faraz’s name from the Exit Control List (ECL). The court heard a petition filed by Shibli challenging the inclusion of his name in the ECL, which barred him from traveling abroad.
Justice Tariq Mahmood Jahangiri presided over the hearing where Shibli appeared with his lawyer. The lawyer argued that his client was facing four FIRs and was already out on bail in all cases.
The court questioned the government’s lawyer about justification for keeping Shibli on the ECL, to which the lawyer responded that they would comply with the court order.
Justice Jahangiri remarked that the interior ministry and Director General of Passports had failed to convince the court of the need to keep Shibli Faraz on ECL. The court ordered for removal of the name from ECL within a week and directed the DG Passports and the Director General of FIA to submit a compliance report to the court.
