IHC raises objection over Omar Cheema's plea against his removal as Governor Punjab

Islamabad: Islamabad High Court on Thursday has raised an objection on Omar Sarfaraz Cheema's plea against his removal as Governor Punjab.

According to details, Omar Sarfaraz Cheema moved the court against his removal as Governor Punjab.

The petition states that the removal of Omar Sarfaraz Cheema is illegal and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif made the move to benefit his own son Hamza Shahbaz.

The plea also asks the court to take action against those who issued the notification of cabinet division as the notification is against the constitution of the country.

However, the registrar's office of the court has raised an objection over the plea and said that the issue is of Punjab and is not in the jurisdiction of the court so the plea is not maintainable.
