Memogate case: SC issues notices to all stakeholders
Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, heading a nine-member larger bench, will hear the case.
The case was brought to light by Mansoor Ijaz - US citizen of Pakistani origin - when he accused former ambassador to the US Hussain Haqqani of writing a memo to US army chief Admiral Mike Mullen seeking the country’s help against a possible military coup in Pakistan.
In the last hearing, the apex court had directed Interior Secretary Siddique Akbar to chalk out a comprehensive security plan for Haqqani during his stay in the country.
The court also directed Haqqani’s counsel to submit a request identifying the threats her client feels, so that appropriate security measures could be taken.
