ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has summoned the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) director general and IGP Islamabad in a matter related to the harassment of ARY News senior anchor Arshad Sharif.

A petition filed in the Islamabad High Court against the harassment of ARY News anchor journalist Arshad Sharif was taken up by the Islamabad High Court chief justice, Athar Minallah.

At the beginning of the hearing, the IHC CJ asked Arshad Sharif’s lawyer what is the issue? Lawyer Faisal Chaudhry told the court that last night few people dressed in plain clothes went to Arshad Sharif’s house. After the incident, Arshad Sharif called him and asked me to file a petition as the petitioner feared the people wanted to take him in custody, Chaudhry added in his comments.

Faisal Chaudhry took a stand in the petition that Arshad Sharif has exposed several stories on the TT scandal against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on which the ministers of the incumbent government have also made threatening tweets against ARY News.

Following the arguments given by the petitioner’s counsel, Chief Justice Islamabad Athar Minallah issued notice to DG FIA, IG Islamabad and asked what is going on the federal capital?

The written order issued by Chief Justice Minallah said that FIA should not harass Sharif or any journalist. The court adjourned a further hearing of the case till 10.30 am tomorrow. FIA, IG Islamamabad have been ordered to appear before the court tomorrow.

کسی بھی صحافی کو بے شک وہ ارشد شریف ہو یا کوئی اور ہراساں کرنا قابل مذمت ہے۔ گزشتہ چند سالوں میں صحافیوں کے خلاف بڑھتے واقعات جس کا میں خود بھی وکٹم ہوں سے ایک سبق سیکھنا چاہئے کہ صحافیوں کو ایسے موقعوں پر ایک دوسرے کے خلاف پوائنٹ سکورنگ کے بجائے کھل کر مذمت کرنی چاہیے!

ارشد شریف اور صابر شاکر کو حراساں کرنے والے یاد رکھیں ۔۔کامیابی حق اور سچ کی ھو گی۔۔پاکستان کی صحافتی برادری ان ریاستی ھتکنڈوں سے ڈرنے والی نہں۔اور ھم جانتے ھیں سکے پیچھے کون ھے۔۔بزدلو کھل کر سامنے او۔۔

Plain clothes men – believed to be from FIA – barged into TV Anchor, Arshad Sharif's house & harassed his family, around 1.30am this morning. According to sources close to him, a FIR was already ready to press after his illegal arrest. Fascism against Media with full might! pic.twitter.com/hYWfV3FsHX

سینیئر صحافی ارشد شریف کو امپورٹڈ حکومت کی ایماء پر ایف آئی اے کی جانب سے ہراساں کرنے کی شدید مذمت کرتا ہوں، کچھ دنوں کی مہمان حکومت کو ان کے کرتوت اور سچائی عوام کے سامنے لانے پر @arsched سے شدید تکلیف ہے۔ صحافیوں کو ٹویٹس پر دھمکیاں دے کر اداروں کے ذریعے ہراساں کرنا بند کریں۔

— Qasim Khan Suri (@QasimKhanSuri) April 28, 2022

ارشد شریف کو ہراس کرنا انتہائی افسوسناک عمل ہے۔ ارشد نے اس ملک کے لئے ففتھ جنریشن وار لڑی۔ارشد کا قصورصرف یہ ہے کہ اس کہ جسم میں ایک بہادر اور محب وطن فوجی کا خون دوڑتا ہے جو اسے نڈر اور وطن پرست رہنے پر مجبور کرتا ہے۔میں ارشد کو جانتا ہوں۔جتنا دباؤ گے اتنا پورے قد سے کھڑا ہو گا
