PESHAWAR, Dec 10 :A two-member bench of Peshawar High Court (PHC) comprising Justice Sahibzada Asadullah and Justice Waqar Ahmad on Tuesday suspended an anti-corruption notice issued to PTI leader and member of the National Assembly Atif Khan. The court also issued notices to the provincial government and the Anti-Corruption Department, seeking their response.<\/p>\n
Atif Khan\u2019s counsel informed the court that the notice was related to the Malam Jabba and Fazl Garden cases. The court acknowledged that the Malam Jabba case had previously been brought before PHC and noted that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had closed its inquiry into the matter.
\nThe lawyer added that following NAB\u2019s closure of the case, the PHC had also disposed it of.<\/p>\n
However, the Anti-Corruption Department had now reopened the investigation and issued a notice to Atif Khan. After hearing the arguments, the court suspended the notice and sought a detailed response from the provincial government and the Anti-Corruption Department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
