The Nation  |  Feb 01, 2023

Former Punjab chief minister Parvez Elahi has claimed that his residence in Gujrat was raided by police in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

“Police raided our house in Gujrat, the Zahoor Elahi Palace, at 4:30am today. They harassed our employees, including women, and then fled when a number of people gathered,” he said on Geo News programme ‘Geo Pakistan’.

Elahi claimed that the raid “is the doing of the Punjab caretaker setup and the federal government”.

“This two-month-old government and Mohsin Naqvi should work on holding free and transparent elections instead of indulging in these illegal activities,” he added.

Later in a tweet, Elahi said that he would be approaching the courts against the raid. “We will go to court against these illegal actions of the caretaker government and have full faith in an independent judiciary.”

ظہور الٰہی ہاؤس کنجاہ گجرات پر غیر قانونی پولیس چھاپے کی مزمت کرتا ہوں۔ ملازمین کو رات کے اندھیرے میں حراسہ کیا گیا۔ 2 ماہ کی نگراں حکومت ان اوچھے ہتکنڈوں سے باز رہے۔نگراں حکومت کی ان غیر قانونی حرکات پر ہم عدالت جائیں گے۔ ہمیں آزاد عدلیہ پر پورا بھروسہ ہے۔

Separately, ex-federal minister Moonis Elahi said that the police raided their residence without any warrant or case.

“Twenty-five police vehicles are understandable, but what were two black Vigos doing with them? Were you looking for Indian spies,” he tweeted.

کل رات پولیس نے ہمارے گجرات کے گھر پر ریڈ کی۔ نہ کوئی وارنٹ نہ کوئی کیس۔ پولیس کی 25 گاڑیوں کی تو سمجھ آتی ہے پر یہ ساتھ 2 کالے ویگو کیا کر رہے تھے؟ انڈین جاسوس ڈھونڈ رہے تھے ؟ pic.twitter.com/ykP5pOKBBD
