LAHORE: An accountability court on Thursday directed the jail authorities to provide B-class facilities to incarcerated PML-N leader Khawaja Asif as per the law.
Judge Jawadul Hassan allowed the former foreign minister to have home-cooked food and get himself checked by his personal physician inside jail. The court further called for a heater to be provided to him in his prison cell.
Khawaja’s lawyer contended before the court that his client, being an elderly parliamentarian, deserves B-class facilities apart from having access to his personal physician and home-cooked food.
Granting his plea, the court ruled that the accused be provided facilities as per the law.
