LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Thursday restrained an anti-corruption court from holding proceedings against Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf MNA Ghulam Sarwar Khan in a falce degree case.

MNA Sarwar from Taxlia had filed a petition challenging the jurisdiction of the ATC to hear a case about his alleged fake degree of graduation.

He alleged that the trial court was holding proceedings against him at the behest of the government.

He prayed to the court to set aside the proceedings before the anti-corruption case.

Justice Syed Mazahar Ali Al(bar Naqvi suspended the impugned proceedings and sought replies from respondents within two weeks.
