SC issues notice to PM over attending ceremony of lawyers in Islamabad

ISLAMABAD (92 News) – The Supreme Court of Pakistan (SCP) has issued a notice to Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan over attending a lawyers’ ceremony at the Convention Center in Islamabad on Monday.

The apex court also issued notices to the attorney general of Pakistan, Punjab advocate general, Convention Center in-charge and concerned ministries. The verdict was forwarded to Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed to form a bench over the matter.

In his remarks, Justice Qazi Faez Isa said that Imran Khan is the prime minister of the entire country, not a particular group, while asking that why the premier is misusing the national resources.

“PM Imran Khan attended the ceremony at the Convention Center in personal capacity and supported a particular group. Convention Center in-charge must inform that who paid the expenses of the event.”
