A major political storm has erupted after Judicial Magistrate Mubashir Hassan Chishti rejected Gandapur’s request for exemption from court appearance and directed the police to arrest him and bring him before the court.

This case was filed after allegedly bottles of alcohol and illegal firearms were recovered from his vehicle, a revelation that shocked many in political and legal circles.

The development has stirred controversy across government and opposition ranks, especially since Gandapur is currently serving as the sitting Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa — making this case highly sensitive.

Political analysts are calling this incident a continuation of Pakistan’s escalating political tensions and believe the case could gain even more significance in the coming days.

So far, neither Sardar Ali Amin Gandapur nor his legal team has issued any response to the court’s order or the arrest warrant.

This explosive development adds fuel to Pakistan’s already volatile political climate. An arrest warrant against a provincial chief minister over alleged possession of liquor and weapons is more than just a legal matter — it’s a political earthquake. With no response yet from Gandapur’s side, speculation is rising about whether this move is law enforcement in action or a deeper political game. Either way, this case is likely to be closely watched in the coming days, both nationally and internationally.
