Lahore: (Staff Reporter) The Lahore High Court (LHC) disposed of an intra-court appeal filed against a single-judge bench’s ruling that had rejected a contempt petition against Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) leader Maryam Nawaz over her remarks against judges of the Supreme Court.
According to the source, a two-member bench, headed by LHC’s Justice Ali Baqar Najafi, wrapped up the appeal after it was withdrawn by complainant Advocate Rana Shahid.
As per details the hearing began, the petitioner told the bench that he wanted to take back his petition. The jurists approved his plea and disposed of the case. He had filed the intra-court appeal after a single bench binned his petition seeking contempt proceedings against Maryam Nawaz.
Furthermore the petition stated that the PMLN chief organizer on Feb 23 at a public gathering in Sargodha had targeted some of the judges of the top court’s bench which had been formed to take up the suo motu notice on delay in Punjab polls.
Moreover she had expressed reservations over inclusion of some judges in the bench, saying they had been part of the benches that issued verdicts against PMLN leadership.
