Lahore High Court's (LHC) Chief Justice Muhammad Ameer Bhatti on Wednesday directed the quarters concerned to come up with a resolution for all administrative issues related to the release of missing anchor-person Imran Riaz Khan by July 25. Chief Justice Bhatti was hearing a plea filed by the father of the missing anchorperson, Imran Riaz Khan, seeking the recovery of his son. The anchor-person’s counsel, Barrister Ali Mian Ashfaq, informed the court that they had attended several meetings of the "working committee" and identified some administrative issues in the release of journalist Imran Riaz Khan. They were optimistic about securing the release of Imran Riaz Khan before the Eid holidays, but unfortunately, it could not be accomplished. The IGP informed the court that they had received information indicating that some foreign numbers used in this case belonged to Afghanistan.
