Bokhari expressed his reservations over the "character of the Supreme Court" in the letter, after one of the investigators in the Rental Power Projects case allegedly committed suicide.
According to a clinical report released on Sunday, the slain NAB investigator Kamran Faisal was a victim of depression and had committed suicide.
Admiral Bokhari said that the “written orders of the court are different from the verbal orders.”
Express News quoted sources as saying that the NAB chief also said that he will tender his resignation if the matter is not resolved.
The hearing of the case is underway at the Supreme Court.
Faisal was found hanging from the ceiling fan in his room at a government hostel in Islamabad, three days after the Supreme Court ordered the prime minister’s arrest in the Rental Power Projects (RPPs) case. He was part of the team investigating the case.

It is not 'Accountability or rooting out corruption', it is how to mint money?.Modus operandi:-Take suo motto notice or readily accept petition of unconcerned persons,raise hue and cry of corruption or human rights/fundamental rights violation through media,harass and disgrace officials to get evidence, if required money is given,adjourn till the time more is required.If not,continue hearing till the desired result is achieved. To my knowledge, not a single case of corruption taken up, has yet been filed in the relevant lower court,nor any one has been punished.What a farce?.Such a methodology, would triple corruption,increase lawlessness and ultimately destroy polity.
@khalid:
I think you and many other including the SC was sleeping when the NAB and other organization where no more independent orginization. SC has a point...I am not against them..but wht should the chairman do. He comes under the President. In simple words he is being pushed from both sides with one being his direct boss...if he resigns just like that...wht will it change ...President will appoint some one HE WANTS TO BE THE chairman...... dont jump to conclusions so fast......
@Hina:
wht is so confusing. NAB is under the goverment according to the new set up and no more an independent organization. President has certain powers...Chairman is being pressurized from both ..the judiciary (which is here right) and the goverment (who is wants to run away).
Thatz why he said he will resign if the matter is not resolved......whty is that confusing.....
Was the whole Pakistan asleep when organizations like NAB, HEC came under the cabnet.......
If he has any dignity or honor, he should resign. Stop blaming the supreme court, you are trying your best to protect corrupt president and prime minster, your officers are under pressure from you and the goverment to do wrong, you should be protecting your staff from these pressures, you did not.
Yes supreme court is to blame for corruption as courts are all corrupt and no action s taken by higher ups in judiciary . Only people who applaude this Pco judiciary are the ones who have political agenda and nothing else. The chief justice has become hungry for publicity ans news headlines he should be investigated for abuse of his powers
If he has any dignity or honor, he should resign. Stop blaming the supreme court, you are trying your best to protect corrupt president and primeminster, your officers are under pressure from you and the goverment to do wrong, you should be protecting your staff from these pressures, you did not.
This man was admiral? May Allah save this country
@harris...not only govt machinery but the supporters of vultures like Mirza & Beatle as well
Admiral Bokhari has not been fair to tax payers as their money has been wasted /pocketed and despite SC orders no action has been taken against those involved in mega corruption.
So that means Supreme Court is to be blamed for following corruption cases in this country? What an excuse. All government machinery is trying level best to twist facts and save the culprits in mega scams.
"officials were under pressure due to the insufficient time given by the Supreme Court to implement its orders" Why is SC not in any hurry to punish the culprit generals even after its verdict in Asghar Khan's case? SC has no interest in the continued massacre of hundreds of Shia in Pakistan. No interest in the most imp cases involving terrorists who are let go without fail and the list goes on and on. A slap is more serious than a murder and one murder/suicide is more serious crime than hundreds of innocent bodies Pakistanis.
Does anyone remenbers any incidence whare Supreme Court set itself a certain deadline to give a verdict?? I can't remember any such case.
Amazing collection of President, PM and Chairman NAB. And the dead opposition as well.
