The Supreme Court on Sunday reprimanded PTI MNA Malik Karamat Khokhar and MPA Nadeem Abbas over shielding land grabbers' group and ordered the authorities concerned to arrest Mansha Bomb, who is accused of operating a land grabbing gang in Lahore A two-member bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar passed the orders while hearing a citizen's petition against the land grabber at the Supreme Court Lahore Registry on Sunday.
During the proceedings, the police superintendent informed the court that Mansha Bomb is part of a huge land grabbing gang. He said 70 cases have been registered against him since long.
At this, the CJP issued orders to immediately arrest Mansha Bomb and directed Malik Karamat Khokhar and Nadeem Abbas who were present in the court to appear before Supreme Court in Islamabad today.
"When we took action on the court's orders, we started receiving calls to stop our operation," the police official said. The chief justice inquired who had called the police officer to ask for favours. The SP then told the court that Khokhar had asked the police not to arrest Mansha Bomb.
"Did the nation vote PTI to become thugs? Will they make naya Pakistan by helping criminals?" the chief justice remarked.
Addressing PTI's MNA Karamat Khokhar, the CJP said, "If the inquiry proves that you called the police to stop them from arresting Mansha, you will not go outside court as an MNA." Khokhar, however, denied any association with Mansha. He further submitted that he had not called the SP.
