ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has directed Rana Shamim to record reply on his affidavit within five days in the contempt of court plea against him.
The Islamabad High Court (IHC) Chief Justice Atahar Minallah heard contempt of court case against former Chief Judge of Gilgit Baltistan Rana Shamin and others.
The judge asked Rana Shamin whether he accepts the content written in the affidavit over which he stated that he hasn t seen the affidavit which was submitted in this court as the original one is locked in his locker in United Kingdom.
Attorney general said it is strange that ex-CJ doesn’t remember what is in the affidavit. Every day of this court is important as it is the “season” of leaks, he added.
Subsequently, the court has adjourned the hearing till December 7.
Previously, IHC had issued a notice to Attorney General over admissibility of a plea seeking formation of commission to investigate alleged audio leak of former Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Saqib Nisar.
