LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Thursday summoned Punjab Chief Secretary, all the Commissioners in the province and the Chairman of Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) in a matter relating to the strike/protest by public servants in support of former Assistant Commissioner Sahiwal who was handcuffed by a civil judge for defying a judicial order.
Chief Justice Muhammad Qasim Khan also ordered the Pemra to identify, with the support of National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra), the protestors who were holding placards and banners inscribed with contemptuous slogans at the protest.
Sahiwal’s former Assistant Commissioner Muhammad Haider was also present in the court besides other government officials when the Chief Justice took up a petition against the strike and the protest held by the public servants allegedly against the judiciary.
