LHC orders case against minister
LAHORE, April 21: The Lahore High Court on Thursday ordered the North Cantt police to register a criminal case against Punjab Information Technology Minister Abdul Aleem Khan and others for illegally occupying a plot. The minister has been charged with purchasing a four-kanal plot at the Parkview Housing Society, facing the Allama Iqbal International Airport, for Rs6.5 million under sale deed and other documents prepared fraudulently by him and his accomplices Hanif and others. The market value of the plot is said to be Rs60 million.
The order was issued by Justice Sardar Mohammad Aslam in a contempt of court petition moved by Mohammad Akram, his brother Mohammad Aslam and their sister Azra Khanum who stated that the North Cantt police had failed to register a case against the minister and others despite an earlier court order.
The two brothers were in the US when the accused prepared bogus documents to first forcibly occupy the plot and then sell it to the minister.
