Elahi contended that the NAB issued warrants of his arrest illegally and arrested him. The NAB unlawfully upgraded inquiry against him to investigation. It did not issue a call up notice nor it gave him chance to file his reply, the petitioner added.
The septuagenarian Elahi prayed the high court to declare his arrest void and bar authorities from arresting him in cases registered clandestinely against him.
