The Sindh High Court has directed the chief secretary to ensure that the civil servants facing corruption or disciplinary proceedings should not get a posting or an administrative assignment till the references against them are concluded in accordance with the law.
The direction came on a petition filed by Haji Ayaz Memon against government officers getting postings despite facing NAB references or other departmental proceedings. The court had directed the chief secretary to submit complete details of cases against civil servants who despite facing disciplinary proceedings or criminal cases are holding the office. Subsequently, the chief secretary filed a report in this regard.
