LAHORE: A two-judge bench headed by Justice Ali Baqar Najafi will hear today (Monday) the petition of Maryam Nawaz seeking the removal of her name from the Exit Control List (ECL).
In her petition, Maryam has requested the LHC to declare the memorandum through which her name was placed on the ECL last year as illegal.

“I have been regularly appearing in the courts and therefore, I should be granted permission to travel abroad till a final verdict on the petition,” Maryam requested in the petition.
Until this petition is decided, the PML-N leader has requested the LHC to grant her a “one-time permission” to travel abroad for six weeks from the date of departure.
Maryam also filed a miscellaneous application seeking the release of her passport.
The LHC while granting her bail last month had directed the PML-N vice-president to surrender her passport to secure her release.

The court had granted bail on November 4 to Maryam Nawaz, the daughter of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who has been held in custody while facing trial on corruption charges.
However, her name has been placed on no-fly list by the Ministry of Interior to bar her from going abroad.
It may be mentioned here that Maryam Nawaz wants to go London to look after her ailing father.
Nawaz Sharif, who is also on trial for corruption, was granted bail on health grounds last month. He is now receiving treatment in London.
