LAHORE: A Lahore High Court (LHC) division bench on Monday declined to hear petitions challenging arrests of lawyers in an attack on the Punjab Institute of Cardiology (PIC), after the LHCBA president requested the court not to adjudicate upon it.
The division bench headed by Justice Ali Baqar Najafi, summoned President Lahore High Court Bar Association (LHCBA) Hafeez-ur-Rehman in chamber. The bar leader requested the bench to transfer the case to another bench of the high court. The bench on the plea of the high court bar sent the case to the chief justice for hearing in another bench of the court.
