ISLAMABAD, July 2: Production orders of Asif Zardari, Faryal Talpur, Shahbaz Sharif, Hamza Shahbaz, Saad Rafiq and Siraj Durrani have been challenged in Supreme Court (SC) of Pakistan.
Asif Nawaz , the petitioner has taken the plea that the accountability courts handed over the accused to National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on physical remand and the speakers of the respective assemblies issued their production orders.
It was contended in the petition that production order is an administrative order which cannot be above the court’s orders and production orders cannot be issued in the presence of court’s orders, stating that the production orders issued by speakers have no legal status.
The petitioner prayed the court to declare null and void the production orders issued during the period of physical remand of the accused.-Sabah
