Former police officer’s accounts freezed over failure to pay child maintenance

Lahore: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday ordered the freezing of bank accounts of former Superintendent of Police (SP) Junaid Arshad for failing to provide maintenance payments to his ex-wife for their children.

The court heard a petition filed by Ayesha Subhani, who stated that her former husband had not been paying expenses for their children for several months.

The petitioner requested legal action against him for neglecting his financial responsibilities.

After reviewing the case, the court directed authorities to freeze the bank accounts of the former SP. Additionally, the court has sought a report regarding his bank accounts by April 20.

It is important to note that under both legal and religious obligations, fathers are required to provide maintenance for their children after divorce, based on their financial capacity. This maintenance typically includes expenses for food, clothing, housing, and education, and is often determined by family courts.

Earlier, American rapper Cardi B revealed how hardships had shaped her into what she is now after her divorce.

In the recent interview, the rapper opened up about how splitting from her husband of seven years kicked off a major change in her career and personal life.

Cardi said on the Aspire With Emma Grede podcast, “I feel like last year a new person was reborn”. She further noted, “I don’t know if it was the divorce. I don’t know if something woke me up. I feel like I’m definitely a new person”.

After the divorce, Cardi B realized this is the time to lock in professionally and build her own empire.

She continued further, “I’m 33 years old. I’m in my Jesus year. I’m in my Orisha year. This is the year. It’s like God is telling me, ‘It’s gonna be now or never take advantage of it”.
