ISLAMABAD: Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Mian Saqib Nisar on Thursday gave a week-long time to PTI chief Imran Khan to submit his response over reports of fake no-objection certificate (NOC) making rounds on media pertaining to his Bani Gala residence.
A three-member bench, headed by the CJP, of Supreme Court was hearing a case with regard to illegal construction in Islamabad’s Bani Gala area when sought a reply from the PTI chief.
During the court proceedings today, the CJP remarked that the news reports pertaining to fake NOC and blueprints of Khan’s Bani Gala residence have been circulating in the media.
He then inquired Imran Khan’s lawyer Faisal Chaudhry whether the reports are true.
To which, Chaudhry said he didn’t go through the records yet.
Justice Nisar then directed him to submit a reply within a week on the matter.
A reply of former local government official drew the top court’s attention into the matter when he claimed the PTI chief had submitted bogus documents for construction of his residence in Bani Gala area of the federal capital.
Former secretary Union Council Bara Kahu Muhammad Umar said it in his reply to the top court over encroachments.
Moreover, Additional Attorney General (AAG) Nayyar Rizvi submitted a report in the apex court on Wednesday, stating that Khan’s NOC for the construction of his Bani Gala residence could not be verified.
However, the PTI chief denied the allegations and asserted that he had obtained an NOC for the construction of residence in Bani Gala.
Taking exception to Khan’s claims, Muhammad Umar, who was secretary of the Union Council n Sohan in 2003 when the document was issued, denied issuing any such document.
