IHC begins hearing petition seeking ‘lettergate’ scandal investigation

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) will begin hearing the petition today (Monday, April 11, 2022), seeking an investigation into the ‘threatening letter’ that the previous government claimed it received from a superpower, as well as the inclusion of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former Prime Minister Imran Khan on the exit control list (ECL).

IHC Chief Justice (CJ) Justice Athar Minallah will hear the petition filed by Maulvi Iqbal Haider, in which he requests that the court place the names of former Prime Minister Fawad Chaudhry, former Federal Ministers Fawad Chaudhry, Shah Mehmood Qureshi, former National Assembly (NA) deputy speaker Qasim Suri, and Pakistani diplomat Asad Majeed on the ECL unless the letter is investigated.
