The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Saturday constituted a bench, on a request for an inquiry by a commission, to probe convicted former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s medical reports.
Chief Justice Athar Minallah constituted the special bench to hear the petition. The bench would comprise Justice Amir Farooq and Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani. The case will be heard on November 24.
An application seeking the constitution of a commission to identify those who were responsible for creating “fake” medical reports of former premier was filed in IHC in October.
The plea was filed by a citizen named Zaman Mughal through his counsel Rana Ahmed Raza Advocate. It nominated Nawaz, his brother Shahbaz Sharif, interior and health secretaries, Punjab health secretary, NAB chairman, Punjab IG and Lahore CCPO as respondents.
