Terence J Sigamony from Islamabad adds: DG Khan Cement Company, owned by Mansha Group, on Saturday filed a petition in the Supreme Court, seeking review of its order about imposition of penalty on account of conduct of the factory's administration.
A two-judge bench, headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar, while disposing of a matter on November 19 last ordered DG Cement to deposit Rs 200 million in the SC Dam Fund as penalty on account of its administration's conduct.
Even though the factory has deposited Rs 100 million in the dam fund, the management through its lawyer Salman Aslam Butt has filed a review petition wherein it is feared that the court's observation about imposition of penalty may be detrimental for repute of DG Cement as a corporate entity.
The petitioner has also expressed regret over any inadvertent action on its part or its administration. The petitioner is a law-abiding corporate entity which always endeavoured to comply with the court's order.
The petition also raised question over the conduct of an applicant Raja Waseem in this matter. It is also contended that there was no order wherein the petitioner was restrained from filling ponds through tube-wells which were shut down later.
