Political Life

Controversy

In 2015, Choudhry applied for renewal of his overseas Pakistani ID card in London. His application was blocked by NADRA after Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) accused him of "anti-state activities" sponsored by India's foreign intelligence agency.[17][18] The Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) came out in support of Shabir Choudhry during this controversy.[19][20] Shabir Choudhry challenged the authorities in Islamabad High Court to prove allegations made against him. After two and half years long trial the authorities, including ISI could not provide any evidence to support their contentions. The High Court ordered the authorities to renew his Identity card. Dr Shabir Choudhry proved to be an innocent person.
