A member of the Lahore High Court Bar Association (LHCBA) has approached the Lahore High Court (LHC) with prayer to direct the respondent government to take necessary action against staff of Pakistan embassy in Saudi Arabia on their failure in performance of their official duties.

The petitioner has filed this petition over the request of Saeed Ismail who wrote a letter to him. LHC return PLF's petition
The Lahore High Court (LHC)'s office returned the petition praying to the court to allow bail to former chief minister, Punjab, Shahbaz Sharif.
The LHC's office raised objection that the petitioner has no locus standi in the matter, hence the petition is neither valid to be filed, nor maintainable.
The petitioner president People Lawyer's Forum (PLF) A.K.Dogar contended that Shahbaz Sharif is citizen of Pakistan, hence it is his legal right to come back to the country.
He said that the respondent government illegally and without lawful authority had sent him back to Saudi Arabia.
He prayed to the court to allow him to come back to his homeland.
