Sprinting Fawad Chaudhry

Sprinting Fawad Chaudhry – The video of former federal information minister Fawad Chaudhry sprinting away to avoid getting arrested by police went viral on social media. The suddenness with which he commenced his race was hilarious as well as pitiable in equal measure. The high escape drama with the former minister, unveiled when after entering his white SUV to go home, he sensed that police officials were approaching him making him to dash out of the vehicle and running towards the entrance of the court building. He was seen hunching over and panting when a lawyer came to help him with someone in the background heard as asking to give him water with another pointing out that he was about to pass out. His escapade took place moments after Islamabad High Court ordered his release in connection with a case in which he was arrested for inciting violence. Ultimately, he faced the judge of the court and was granted relief but after the judge chiding him for his impatience saying that he should have waited for the written order considering that he was a lawyer himself. The most painful aspect of this episode is to witness the swift reversal of fortune that has become the bane of governance process in Pakistan. The Weekender
