Usman Dar’s appeal to have his name removed off the Provisional National Identification List (PNIL) has been accepted by the court, allowing him to undertake Umrah.
Justice Shams Mehmood Mirza of the Lahore High Court (LHC) heard the appeal to remove Usman Dar’s name from the PNIL.
Usman Dar’s attorney said during the court that his client was unable to undertake Umrah with his family because his name was on the Federal Investigation Agency’s PNIL, which prevented him from leaving the country.
The attorney went on to say that Usman Dar had begged the Police and FIA to take his name off of PNIL, but that neither agency had responded and had pressed forward with the application.
Usman Dar’s attorney asked the court to order his name to be removed from PNIL and to instruct the FIA not to obstruct his family’s trip to Saudi Arabia.
The court then granted Usman Dar permission to go for Umrah by accepting his appeal and ordering his name to be removed from PNIL.
In the meantime, Usman Dar’s seven-day protection bail in the GHQ attack case has been accepted by LHC.
