  "summary": "The Lahore High Court on Tuesday heard a petition challenging the detention of Aleema Khan, sister of PTI founder Imran Khan, and her driver under the Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) Ordinance. The detention was ordered by the Lahore deputy commissioner following a letter from the Lahore capital city police officer alleging that Aleema and her driver were prejudicial to public safety and maintenance of public order. The court sought arguments on the maintainability of the petition, with the court reserving its decision and adjourning the hearing until September 25 for further arguments. The petition, filed by Aleema's son Shahraiz Khan, argues that the detention orders are unlawful and fail to follow the prescribed procedure under Section 3 of the MPO Ordinance.",
