PTI | Islamabad
A Pakistani court on Tuesday ordered the release of Lashkar-e-Tayyeba founder Hafeez Muhammad Saeed, ignoring the Government's argument that his "increasing activities" could hurt relations with "neighbouring" countries.Â
In his order, Lahore High Court Judge Justice Akhter Shabbir asked the Government to immediately release Saeed, who was detained on August 28, saying his detention was against the constitution and law.
According to Saeed's Attorney Nazeer Ahmad Ghazi, the judge held the arrest order and the reasons given by the Government as "unlawful" and ordered his immediate release. A detailed judgement was expected later. The arrest of the head of the self-proclaimed NGO Jamat-ud-Dawa was challenged by his wife Mehmoona Saeed.
