NADRA Refutes Claims: No CNIC Blocking for 18 PTI Leaders

CNIC Blocking

On Monday, the National Database Registration Authority (NADRA) vehemently denied allegations of blocking the Computerized National Identity Cards (CNICs) of 18 Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders, including former ministers. The spokesperson for NADRA refuted the claims, stating that the authority has not taken any such action, and no court directives have been issued in this regard.

The spokesperson emphasized that the interior ministry has not issued any directives to initiate the process of blocking CNIC for the mentioned PTI leaders. This clarification comes in response to earlier reports suggesting that NADRA had implemented CNIC blocks for 18 PTI leaders, notably including Hammad Azhar and Murad Saeed, who are currently facing charges related to the May 9 riots.

Among the reported PTI leaders whose CNICs were allegedly blocked are Ali Amin Gandapur, Muhammad Aslam Iqbal, Malik Karamat Khokhar, Wasiq Qayyum Abbasi, Jamshed Iqbal Cheema, Zubair Khan Niazi, Malik Nadeem Abbas, and Ghulam Mohiuddin Dewan. According to initial reports, the CNICs were purportedly blocked at the request of the police and were to remain blocked until the conclusion of investigations into the cases.

NADRA’s firm denial seeks to quell rumors and speculations surrounding the alleged CNIC blocks, reaffirming that the authority operates independently and follows legal procedures.

The clarification is crucial to maintain transparency and dispel any concerns or misconceptions regarding the status of the CNICs for the mentioned PTI leaders. As the situation unfolds, further developments will likely shed light on the accuracy of the initial reports and the reasons behind the alleged CNIC blocks.
