The missing containers case, which saw the disappearance of over 19,000 containers allegedly carrying arms, ammunition, liquor and other goods was investigated by a commission led by AIG Ramzan Bhatti.
The order was issued by a bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry at the Supreme Court’s Karachi division.
The order also stated that an investigation should be made into how many of the missing containers had weapons in them.
The order outlined a two phase investigation process. The first was to investigate weapons dealers and determine what weapons were ordered by them, for what purpose.
The second was to investigate what licensed gun owners are using their weapons for to determine where and when each bullet they purchase was used.
The case was postponed and will be heard in Islamabad on November 11.
The court ordered that a report about how many of the missing containers contained weapons should be submitted in the court in November. The court also stated that the Shoaib Suddle and Ramzan Bhatti commission's reports be used in the investigation.
