Justice Waqar Ahmed of Peshawar High Court (PHC) Abbottabad Bench Wednesday has said that the construction of an official residence for judicial officers in Abbottabad was a long-standing demand and work is in progress and soon the construction of official residences for all judicial officers will be completed.
He expressed these views while addressing a cere-mony to mark the completion of the construction of government flats for judicial officers in Abbottabad. Justice Waqar Ahmed said that the construction of government residences for judicial officers in Ab-bottabad was the need of the hour as many officers were living on rent in private residences, which posed a security problem to those officers.
He said that following the instructions of the Pe-shawar High Court, District Judiciary started con-struction of residential flats for judicial officers and today by the grace of Allah 12 residential flats are being transferred for the accommodation of judicial officers.—APP
