The interim Punjab government declined to form a judicial commission in the Lahore High Court hearing of the Jaranwala tragedy case.
Additional Advocate General Punjab, Ghulam Sarwar Nahang, conveyed this to the court, asserting that the Punjab government had already constituted a JIT to investigate the incident.
It conveyed that it would be unnecessary to form a separate judicial commission. The hearing was conducted by Justice Asim Hafeez in response to a petition filed by Bishop Azad Marshall.
Earlier, the Lahore High Court had instructed the Punjab chief secretary to take a decision in connection with a petition seeking formation of a judicial commission for an inquiry into the Jaranwala tragedy.
