Justice Ijaz Ahmad of the Lahore High Court (LHC), Rawalpindi Bench, on Monday directed the defence secretary to submit reply within 24 hours on a plea filed by Brig Ali Khan.
In his petition, Brig Ali Khan had prayed to the court to declare court martial proceedings against him illegal. Brig Ali was arrested for his alleged links with Hizb-ut-Tehrir. Counsel for Brig Ali, Col (retd) Inam-ur-Rahim, contended that Pakistan Army had charged his client with heinous crimes without any proof. Brigadier Ali also alleged that the military brass was influencing his court martial proceedings.
