ISLAMABAD: Supreme Court on October (Thursday) will hear petition filed by his wife Qaisara Elahi against alleged illegal detention of former Punjab Chief Minister Pervez Elahi.

Three member bench of SC headed by Justice Sardar Tariq Masood will hear petition. Notices have been issued to parties in this regard.

Three-member bench headed by Justice Ijaz-ul-Ahsan had heard Parvez Elahi's bail application and during hearing, Justice Ijaz-ul-Ahsan remarked that how can court go against Constitution?

Petitioner did not make any illegal demand. Supreme Court while issuing orders to Lahore High Court to decide on Pervez Elahi's petitions on August 21 adjourned hearing of case for an indefinite period, which has now been fixed for re-hearing.

Lahore High Court had rejected Parvez Elahi's bail in an interim order, while former Chief Minister had requested Supreme Court to annul decision of July 17.

Along with this case, some other petitions have also been fixed for hearing, therefore case will be heard by three-member bench headed by Justice Tariq Masood instead of bench headed by Justice Ijazul Hassan.
