The police on Monday arrested former parliamentarian Syed Salman Mohsin Gilani after a court in Lahore sentenced him for contesting 2008 elections on a fake degree.

Gilani belongs to Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N)

The court awarded him a one-year-long jail term and ordered him to pay a fine worth Rs30,000.

In August 2012, a case was registered against Gilani for contesting elections on a fake degree after the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) sent his documents for verification and found them to be bogus.

In April, the Lahore High Court granted protective bail to Gilani till April 26.

Gilani contested the general election in 2008 from the NA-165 constituency of Pakpattan.

  1. Courts ka insaff…. fine of Rs. 30,000,,,,,, though he got salry for 5 years other than facilities. wah ji wah

    • Only reason court ruled that way is most likely because he LOST the election…. Remember there has been an issue with his degree for over 5 years and yet thanks to the same judges/ECP, he managed to contest TWO elections….

      BTW: Koi Gilani hay jis ki fake degree na ho?????
