KARACHI: The Supreme Court on Wednesday issued a notice to Attorney General of Pakistan (AGP) Khalid Javed Khan after being irked by Cantonment Board Clifton (CBC) selling federal land.
A three-member bench led by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Gulzar Ahmed, comprising Justice Sajjad Ali Shah and Justice Qazi Muhammad Amin Ahmed heard a case related to the P&T Colony in Karachi’s Gizri area.
The apex court questioned how the cantonment could sell land that belongs to the federal government and allow the building of a private housing society on it.
