Islamabad: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) Monday issued notices to former Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Retired Qamar Javed Bajwa and former Director General of Inter –Services Intelligence (DG ISI) Lieutenant General Faiz Hameed in the case related to breaking the legal barrier and misrepresenting various events after retirement.
According to details, the petition filed by citizen Atif Ali stated that journalists Javed Chaudhry and Shahid Maitla had written two articles for viewership which had a negative impact on the society. Articles of both have been annexed to the petition.
The petitioner stated: “I was surprised to see how the mafia is ruining the society. Criminal behavior has come out under the guise of freedom of speech, that's why I requested to file a case”.
He also took the stand that this criminal act was done with the connivance of General Retired Bajwa and Lt General Retired Faiz Hameed, therefore Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) should take strict action on it.
Chief Justice of Islamabad High Court (IHC) Aamer Farooq, while issuing a written order on the petition of Atif Ali, said; “According to the petitioner, the FIA was repeatedly requested to register the case, but no action was taken”.
The court verdict said that the petitioner's counsel asked that FIA be ordered to register a case and take action.
The Islamabad High Court also issued notices to journalists Javed Chaudhry, Shahid Matla, Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) and other parties including General Retired Qamar Javed Bajwa and Lt General Retired Faiz Hameed.
