The Pakistan Government on Wednesday said it would challenge the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) decision to suspend the detention of Mumbai terror attacks mastermind Zakiur Rehman lakhvi.“The Government has decided to move an intra-court appeal against the IHC’s order,” an interior ministry official said.
The attorney general of Pakistan will file the intra-court appeal against the IHC order to suspend lakhvi’s detention under Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) Ordinance. The Islamabad High Court had on Monday ordered the conditional release of lakhvi, asking him to deposit a security bond of Rs 1 million in response to his petition seeking an end to his detention.
