RAWALPINDI:


The Lahore High Court’s Rawalpindi bench on Monday issued notice to a senior official of Pakistan Air Force (PAF) for not implementing its orders in a case involving appointment of four dozen candidates.


Justice Ibadur Rahman of the LHC Pindi bench ordered him to file a written reply within a week in response to a petition filed by 48 PAF employees.

The judge questioned Aeronautical Complex Kamra’s Managing Director Usama Bin Jabbar, who appeared on behalf of Air Vice-Marshal Suhail Malik, why the court order has not been implemented.

The 48 PAF employees were selected on February 21, 2011 but have yet to be appointed to the posts advertised in the media.

The court had earlier
asked the complex management to appoint the employees from the date of their selection.

Jabbar informed the court that the employees were appointed from February 2013.

Col (retd) Inamur Raheem, representing the petitioners, said the court’s order had yet to be implemented.

The court issued a notice to the air vice-marshal asking him to file a written reply within seven days regarding reasons for non-implementation of the order.
