Islamabad:
The Supreme Court Registry Office has sought an explanation of the Fixer branch officials to schedule the constitutional interpretation case in a regular bank led by Judge Mansoor Ali Shah.
According to the sources, the Office of the Registrar has demanded clarifications on how a case was assigned to a Constitutional Bank (CB) to a regular bank. Officials have been asked to present their response within seven days.
The issue arose after Judge Shah’s bank decided to hear a case on article 191a of the Customs Rights Law.
A day before, a seven -members CB led by Judge Aminuddin Khan resumed to listen to the cases that were previously placed before a regular bank headed by Judge Shah.
However, on January 17, the Supreme Court Committee that lists the cases before the banks withdraw the cases of the regular bank and sent them to the CB committee for the reverence.
This was the regular bank that initiated a contempt procedure against an additional registrar, Nazar Abbas, for violating its order. Later, on January 27, the bank exonerated the official of the contempt positions, but pointed out that the SC committees had committed the court contempt.
