The Islamabad High Court has ordered Interior Ministry to remove the name of Prime Minister's Special Assistant on Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Zulfi Bukhari from Exit Control List.
A two-member bench of the Court comprising Justice Aamir Farooq and Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kiani announced the reserved verdict in the case in Islamabad on Wednesday.
Earlier, on December 4, the IHC had reserved its verdict on Bukhari's petition.
Prior to that, the Interior Ministry had placed Bukhari's name on the ECL in August following the National Accountability Bureau's (NAB) request after he was accused of owning offshore companies. NAB had initiated an inquiry against Bukhari after his name appeared in the Panama Papers as he owns six offshore companies.
