PTI files contempt of court plea against Islamabad DC

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Saturday filed a contempt of court petition in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) against the Deputy Commissioner (DC) Islamabad for not allowing a rally planned to express solidarity with Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP).

According to details, PTI chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan announced rallies in support of the CJP across the country on Saturday.

The plea submitted by PTI stated that the Islamabad district administration has denied giving permission for a public rally in Islamabad today (May 6) to show solidarity with the CJP, which is contempt of court.

It should be noted here that Justice Babar Sattar of the IHC had ordered the DC Islamabad to announce the decision regarding PTI’s rally request, but the DC did not allow the rally.
