SC issues notice to Rehman Malik for non-implementation of court order

ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court issued Tuesday a notice to Senator Rehman Malik regarding non-implementation of a court’s order. A three-member bench of the apex court headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar, resumed hearing in a contempt petition filed by petitioner Mahmood Akhtar Naqvi.

Naqvi had prayed to the court that Malik had failed to compensate the government for the benefits utilised during his tenure as a senator despite the top court’s order in the dual nationality case.

Observing that the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader had failed to follow the court’s order, the bench served him a notice and adjourned hearing of the case till date in office.
