Resolve AQ Khan's security protocol issue out-of-court, says Lahore High Court | The Lahore High Court's (LHC) Rawalpindi bench has
asked the government to reach an out-of-court settlement with nuclear scientist Dr AQ Khan with regard to his security. Hearing an intra-court appeal by the
federal government on restoring Khan's security protocol, the court observed that
it would be in the national interest to resolve the issue amicably, failing which
it would take a decision on November 23. It is pertinent to mention here that
Dr. Khan had challenged his official protocol, terming it a violation of his fundamental
rights, following which the Lahore High Court directed the concerned authorities
to remove all restrictions on his movements. However, under intense international
pressure, the government appealed against the court's directives, which saw the
court put a stay order on the verdict. |
