The local court of Lahore discharged the case against the former Principal Secretary of the Chief Minister Muhammad Khan Bhatti for taking bribe.
Anti-corruption presented Muhammad Khan Bhatti in the court of Judicial Magistrate Ghulam Murtaza Work and requested his physical remand.
Former principal secretary’s lawyer Rana Intizar opposed the physical remand and pointed out that there is no evidence of bribery against Mohammad Khan Bhatti, and Anti-Corruption does not even have details of Mohammad Khan Bhatti’s bank accounts.
After the proceedings, the court rejected the request for physical remand and dismissed the case.
It should be remembered that on March 22, the special anti-corruption court in Lahore granted bail to Muhammad Khan Bhatti in a corruption case of Rs.
It should be noted that on March 2, Muhammad Khan Bhatti, the right hand of former Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervez Elahi, was arrested by the Quetta police. Muhammad Khan Bhatti had revealed the corruption story of Parvezalhi and Munis Elahi in his statement under Section 164.
