Updated at: 2027 PST, Saturday, April 24, 2010 LAHORE: Shoaib Malik’s father-in-law and Sania Mirza’s father Imran Mirza has arrived in Lahore today with Sania’s sister Anam Mirza and other relatives. They have been taken from the Allama Iqbal Airport to a local five-star hotel where the eighth floor has been booked for them. Sania’s family reached Lahore from Delhi through a PIA flight PK-271. While talking with media after arriving at the airport, Imran Mirza said that we are happy to reach Pakistan. We have come here for attending the ceremonies of valima and reception. Replying to a question, he said that we pray to God for success of this marriage. Meanwhile addressing at a press conference in Sialkot along with MPA Chaudhry Akhlaq, Shoaib’s brother-in-law Imran Zafar said that they are completely following the government’s policy of avoiding un-necessary electricity. Their house is being illuminated through generator and Wapda is not extending any undue favour. He said that Shoaib and Sania would reach Sialkot tomorrow for attending their reception. Imran Zafar said that journalists would be fully cooperated at the reception but they would not be allowed to cover the ceremony. He said that he himself is making all the arrangements of Shoaib’s valima and there is no interference by the city administration. MPA Chaudhry Akhlaq said on this occasion that there is no ban on serving more than one dish. This may be recalled that all decorative lights were taken off from the house of Shoaib after Wapda made a raid for illuminating it.
