LAHORE: Syed Ali Musa Gilani, the younger son of the prime minister, is returning home from South Africa to attend the Supreme Court hearing in ephedrine import case on April 19, according to his lawyer.

“Musa Gilani is returning to join the Supreme Court proceedings on April 19,” a counsel for the prime minister’s son said on Sunday.

Fawad Chaudhry said a team of legal experts would accompany Mr Gilani to the court to defend allegations against him.

He said there was no truth in the allegations as three men had been “arrested using Mr Gilani’s name to deceive the people of Bahawalpur, Multan and Kharian”.
