Bahria town’s
owner and the property tycoon of Pakistan Rawalpindi bench of Lahore High
Court to refer their case to National Accountability Bureau in Islamabad
The
anti-corruption establishment in Lahore had challenged this order in the LHC
and the case that Abdul Basit was pleading was that the appeal of
anti-corruption establishment in LHC was unlawful as it is a provincial
institution while NAB is a federal body, and thus, only the Supreme Court of
Pakistan may be referred in such a case because the dispute between a
provincial and a federal body can only be resolved in the Supreme Court.
In response to
the argument, Prosecutor General Punjab, Mr. Sadaqat Ali Khan, who in this case
was representing anti corruption establishment told the court that Malik Riaz
and his son could not approach the court as they were escapees. He went on to
say that the lawyers of the Bahria
Town
Mr. Khan made it
clear before the court that the Supreme Court had already ordered the court to
hear Malik Riaz’s case when Chairman NAB passed those orders. He alleged that
Malik Riaz had connections in the NAB and thus wants the case to be taken up by
the court so that he may get some sort of favor from NAB. Keeping in view the
arguments from both sides, the bench rejected Malik Riaz’s plea and the case
will now continue to proceed in the Lahore High Court.
