ISLAMABAD: The federal government has requested the Islamabad High Court (IHC) for an early decision on its appeal against the restoration of pension of former Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) director general Bashir Memon.
Mr Memon had again hit the headlines recently when the Supreme Court finally quashed a presid ential reference against Justice Qazi Faez Isa and scrapped inquiry proceedings against him by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), as the ex-DG had earlier alleged that he had been pressured by people close to the prime minister to initiate the inquiry against the Supreme Court judge.
ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday ordered removal of the name of former director general of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) retired Lt Gen Asad Durrani from the Exit Control List (ECL).
Chief Justice Athar Minallah issued the order while hearing Mr Durrani’s petition seeking removal of his name from the ECL.
At the outset of the hearing, Justice Minallah asked Deputy Attorney General Syed Mohammad Tayyab as to why the name of the former ISI chief had been kept on the no-fly list.
Mr Tayyab replied that Mr Durrani’s name was on the ECL due to a pending inquiry against him.
