The Islamabad High Court has directed the Federal Investigation Agency to address “in accordance with law” a complaint lodged against four individuals, including a former army chief and a spymaster, for allegedly violating their code of conduct and disseminating false information.
IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq took up a petition on Monday filed by a citizen, Atif Ali, through his lawyer Raja Rizwan Abbasi, seeking directions for the FIA to initiate a case against former army chief Gen (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa, former Inter-Services Intelligence chief Lt Gen (retd) Faiz Hameed, and two renowned journalists. At the last hearing of the case on April 1, the court had directed the petitioner to submit the receipt of the complaint that he allegedly lodged with the agency after some of the respondents claimed that the FIA had never received any such complaint.
