A district and sessions court of Lahore on Monday granted pre-arrest bail to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) MNA Javed Latif in a case pertaining to allegedly defaming the state institutions. The MNA was earlier quoted as saying in a talk show: “If anything happens to PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz, the PML-N will not say Pakistan Khappay.” The sessions judge granted bail to the PML-N leader till March 30, and also summoned police record in the case by the said date. Earlier in the day, the MNA appeared in court wherein his counsel Syed Farhad Ali Shah implored that his client was implicated in a forged case aimed at humiliating and embarrassing him, saying he had nothing to do with the allegations On the contrary, the law officer argued that the accused defamed state institutions through his remarks. The prosecution argued that the bail plea of the accused be dismissed.
