Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Parvez Elahi was once again taken into custody, this time by the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) Punjab, just a day after he was given bail in the Federal Judicial Complex (FJC) attack case.
Punjab’s former chief minister has been taken to the judicial complex for his transitory remand today.
The officials said that Elahi will be taken to the ACE headquarters in Lahore by evening, adding that he has four corruption cases registered against him.
A day earlier, the PTI president was granted bail in the judicial complex attack case by an anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Islamabad.
ATC Judge Abual Hasnat Zulqarnain had accepted Elahi’s bail against the surety bond of Rs20,000 — which Elahi’s legal team failed to pay.
Due to the non-payment of the bail bond, the Anti-corruption Establishment (ACE) cell arrested Elahi from Adiala jail.
