ISLAMABAD: The Central Secretariat of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf(PTI) was de-sealed on the order of the Islamabad High Court(IHC).

Islamabad High Court judge Justice Sardar Ejaz Ishaq Khan had appointed a bailiff and ordered to de-seal the office, after which the bailiff de-sealed the office of PTI.

It may be recalled that last month Capital Development Authority (CDA) had demolished a part of the PTI secretariat and sealed the office during an anti-encroachment operation, on which the PTI lawyers approached the court.

On the request of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, the Islamabad High Court ordered the immediate de-sealing of the central secretariat of PTI.

Earlier, Islamabad High Court ordered immediate desealing of the central secretariat of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf.

Islamabad High Court Justice Saman Rafat Imtiaz issued a reserved judgment in which the court said that CDA had issued notices to the previous owner in 2022 and 2023 and no explanation could be given as to why notices were sent to the old owner.

The court ordered the PTI secretariat to be de-sealed immediately and said that CDA can take action if there is any violation of the law.
