SC declares appointment of NAB Chairman illegal
ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has declared the appointment of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Chairman, Fasih Bokhari illegal. The apex court has directed the federal government to appoint a new chairman.
A five member bench of the apex court headed by Justice Tasadduq Hussain Jilani heard the constitutional petition filed by Chaurdhy Nisar Ali Khan challenging the appointment of Bokhari as NAB chairman. Chaudhry Nisar in his petition stated that he as the opposition leader was not consulted during the appointment process.
In its short order the court ruled that not consulting the opposition leader over the appointment of the NAB chairman was a violation of the constitution.
