Overview
- The General Secretariat certified that Moonis Elahi is not subject to any Interpol notice or diffusion.
- The ruling follows nearly two years of reviews of Pakistan’s requests tied to cases including a 2023 Gujrat murder FIR as well as corruption and fraud allegations.
- Interpol concluded the matter fell outside its scope or lacked sufficient basis for international action under its rules.
- The decision lifts immediate international arrest risk, with reports saying Elahi can travel without Red Notice restrictions while domestic proceedings in Pakistan remain possible.
- Elahi’s lawyer called the outcome a clean chit, while reporting described the development as a setback for the PML-N government that had sought his extradition.
