Citizen assault notice: CJP orders PTI’s Imran Shah to submit Rs3m in dams fund

Daud Chauhan, the citizen of Karachi who was slapped by the PTI MPA, has forgiven Imran Shah.

Karachi (Pakistan Point News – 1st September, 2018) Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar has ordered Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MPA Imran Ali Shah to donate Rs 3 million in the dams fund as a fine for assaulting a citizen in Karachi.

A hearing on the suo motu notice of PTI MPA Imran Shah slapping a citizen was held in the Supreme Court Karachi Registry on Saturday.

Concluding the case, the CJP ordered the PTI MPA to donate Rs 3 million in the dams fund within 15 days. Moreover, Imran Shah won't be able to travel in car above 1800CC.

Daud Chauhan, the citizen of Karachi who was slapped by the PTI MPA, has forgiven Imran Shah.

Earlier during the hearing, CJP Nisar expressed anger towards Imran Shah and rebuked him.

“Is Imran Shah present? Come forward. I will talk to you. What were you thinking while slapping a citizen? Even animals are not treated this way,” the CJP said.

The CJP further said, “Why did you slap? Was he a human or an animal? This is an unforgivable crime. We won’t pardon you. You are the representative of people. Will you beat them like this?”

Continuing with the argument, CJP Nisar said, “I will come outside. Hit me like you hit that citizen.”

Feeling embarrassed, Imran Shah said, “Sorry sir, I am ashamed.”

The CJP replied, “What sorry? I had hit a servant with a belt in childhood. My father had also hit me for not learning my lesson.”

He went on to ask him, “How many times did you slap?” Imran Shah replied, “Four”.

The CJP said that you will also be slapped four times publicly.

CJP Nisar had on August 18 taken notice of a video viral on social media showing physical assault by PTI MPA Imran Ali Shah on a citizen Daud Chauhan in Karachi.

Taking notice of the issue, the CJP had demanded a report from Imran Ali Shah and Daud Chauhan within three days.
