Dependents were discussed in detail in this case, minor children were required to be shown in the dependent category, Tarian’s age was 26 years at the time of nomination papers and now 31 years.
Imran Khan’s lawyer referred to the Supreme Court decision regarding DNA.
He said that the state cannot forcibly take DNA from anyone, the will of the affected party is necessary in relation to giving DNA, in this case also DNA can be taken only when he wants, in Pakistan. There is no such law that you ask to take someone’s DNA by force, Imran Khan is not a public office holder at the moment, so the petition is not admissible.

He said that Pakistani law cannot call someone from outside and ask them to give a DNA sample. This case reaches a ‘dead end’ on this one point. Giving a sample is a voluntary act.
Lawyer Safai Salman Akram Raja said that the decision to make DNA a part of the evidence was given by the Supreme Court on my request, according to this law it is prohibited to take sample from anyone.
