LAHORE – The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday set aside the detention of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) member of the Azad Kashmir Assembly, Ghulam Mohiuddin Dewan, and ordered his release. Justice Asjad Javed Gharal passed the order while hearing a petition filed by Saba Dewan, the wife of the PTI leader, challenging her husband’s detention. The petitioner submitted that her husband was a member of the Azad Kashmir Assembly, but the government had detained him under the Maintenance of Public Order. She argued that the action was a clear violation of Article 9 of the Constitution. She requested the court to set aside her husband’s detention and order his release.
