LHC allows Hafiz Saeed's case to be shifted from Gujranwala to Lahore
[DAWN] The Lahore High Court on Monday allowed that a terrorism financing case against Hafiz Saeed, chief of the banned Jamaat-ud-Dawa
...the front organization of Lashkar-e-Taiba...
(JuD), be shifted from a Gujranwala anti-terrorism court (ATC) to one in Lahore.

LHC Chief Justice Sardar Shamim Ahmed heard a petition filed by Saeed in which he said that he was being kept in a jail in Lahore but was transported to Gujranwala for every appearance before the court.

He said that in light of the security situation, appearing before the Gujranwala court was not fitting and added that if he was being held in a jail in Lahore, the case should also be shifted there.

During the proceedings, a lawyer for the government said that they had no objection to shifting the case.

Issuing the order, the LHC chief justice wrapped up the petition.

In July, Saeed was arrested in connection with the terrorism financing case while on his way from Lahore to Gujranwala. Prior to his arrest, the , were booked in nearly two dozen casestop 13 leaders of JuD, including Saeed and Naib Emir Abdul Rehman Makki for terror financing and money laundering under the Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997.
