The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Wednesday took exception to the federal interior ministry’s failure to file reports about the presence of missing persons in internment centres of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP), and issued a show-cause notice to the interior secretary for not complying with the court orders.
Hearing petitions against enforced disappearance of citizens from different areas of Karachi, a division bench of the SHC headed by Justice Mohammad Karim Khan Agha observed that it was stated that internment centres were under the administrative control of the KP government but the interior ministry had powers throughout the country.
Court monetary assessments in 2020 raked in a quarter-million dollars last year for Lewis County, a year which also saw an 18 percent increase in case filings across the board from infractions to felonies.

This is available for public view online at annualreport.isc.idaho.gov. While court filings were up for Lewis County last year, court cases here and statewide were nonexistent in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

It was the last thing Al Braccolino, 90, of Crown Point, told one of his daughters as paramedics loaded him into an ambulance Nov. 16. COVID-19 forced him into the final fight of his life.
Ten days later, the chair Al usually occupied at the Thanksgiving table would sit empty. The husband to his wife of 70 years, father of three and grandfather of six died on the holiday.
Alâs daughter, Sandra Noe, was herself suffering from COVID-19, which she contracted while caring for her sick parents, when the virus forced Alâs hospitalization.
Noe, 66, is no stranger to helping elderly shut-ins weather isolation.

Facebook executives got 110% bonuses in the second half of 2020, according to a new SEC filing.
The bonuses were partially tied to Facebook s election integrity efforts.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg doesn t participate in the employee bonus program.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg s two lieutenants got a big pay day for their work around last year s election: COO Sheryl Sandberg and CFO David Wehner got just shy of $1 million in bonus compensation for the second half of 2020.
Those bonuses, awarded at 110%, were at least partially tied to election integrity efforts in connection with the U.S. 2020 elections, according to an SEC filing from the company first spotted by The Information.
