In a land acquisition matter, an Anti-Corruption Court in Rawalpindi released bailable arrest warrants for ex-federal minister Fawad Chaudhry. Special Judge Anti-Corruption, Khawar Rashid, ordered police to apprehend him and deliver him before the court by June 30.

Fawad Chaudhry was charged with a case by the Punjab Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE). It concerns claims of unlawful land grab for a private residential society in the Dina neighbourhood of Jhelum, close to GT Road. The FIR was registered in April.

The FIR claims Fawad Chaudhry misused his power to aid in the transfer of public property to a private housing complex. The lawsuit asserts that he used his official capacity to directly aid this land transaction.

Fawad left Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in May 2023, although he had been a top leader there. Even after leaving, he had remained involved in party business and conveyed PTI’s position on several platforms.

PTI, however, has officially severed all relations with Fawad Chaudhry. After a meeting between PTI founder Imran Khan and Barrister Gohar at Adiala Jail, this decision followed.

Imran Khan clearly instructed, publicly dissociating the party from Fawad Chaudhry at this conference. Following his instruction, PTI declared its full dissociation from the former minister.

Doubts over Fawad’s political career have been brought about by this decision by Imran Khan. Though separated, he had actively upheld PTI’s values, but this public disavowal could have long-lasting consequences for his contribution to national politics.
