Rawalpindi Court Moves to Declare KPK CM Ali Amin Gandapur a Proclaimed Offender

Rawalpindi: The Rawalpindi Anti-Terrorism Court has taken the significant step of initiating proceedings to declare Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur a proclaimed offender. This comes after his continued absence from court hearings in a case related to arson, which was registered at Hassan Abdal Police Station.

The court, in its ruling, has set a final deadline for Ali Amin Gandapur to appear in court by January 21, 2025. If the KP CM fails to comply, the court will proceed with declaring him a proclaimed offender, marking a crucial development in the legal proceedings against him.

The case pertains to an arson incident that occurred at the Hassan Abdal Police Station. Despite the ongoing investigation, Gandapur has yet to attend any court hearings related to the case. His absence has led to the court’s decision to take stronger measures, including the potential proclamation as an offender.

Legal experts have noted that this action signifies the court’s determination to ensure accountability, especially given the high-profile status of the accused. If declared a proclaimed offender, Gandapur would face serious legal consequences, which could include arrest and further legal complications.

The case has garnered significant attention, as it involves not only the alleged criminal activity but also the legal implications for a sitting provincial chief minister. The court’s decision to take this step is expected to escalate the political and legal tensions surrounding the case.
