Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday asked the director general Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) to decide the case of ISI's Sector Assistant Sub Inspector (SASI), Tabasum Shehzad, strictly in accordance with the law. The court issued the directive on a petition of Tabasum, wherein he had challenged his transfer from Lahore to Quetta.
The court asked the LHC office to transmit a copy of the writ petition to the DG ISI, who shall attend the petitioner's grievance and then decide his representation in accordance with law, rules and pass an appropriate orders in terms of Section 24 (a) of the General Clauses Act 1897."
Through his counsel Salman Riaz Chaudhry Advocate, the petitioner submitted on January 22, 2008, he was appointed as SASI by the DG ISI. He said he remained doing his services at the office of the commander in Lahore. During his service in Lahore, disciplinary inquiry was initiated against him for absence from services. He said while the inquiry is still pending the commander transferred him from Lahore to Quetta on April 30 and ordered him to give joining at Quetta.
He said the commander was not a competent authority to transfer him beyond his jurisdiction, which is within the province. He said only the DG could make such transfers.
He said he could not be transferred while an inquiry was pending against him. He said his transfer was totally illegal and unconstitutional. He said he gave representation before both the officers but he had received no reply so far in this regard. He said according to the Article 4 of the Constitution and Article 24 (a) of the General Clauses Act 1897 they were bound to decide it. He prayed the court to declare his transfer orders as illegal and set it aside.
