CJP seeks NAB reply to ex-army officer’s suicide note
ISLAMABAD: Taking notice of a purported suicide note left by retired brigadier and analyst Asad Munir, Chief Justice of Pakistan Asif Saeed Khosa on Thursday summoned a reply from the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).
On the directive of the chief justice, the Supreme Court’s Human Rights Cell asked NAB to submit the response within a fortnight. The suicide note was received by the SC registrar office.
In his suicide note, Asad Munir, who served in the army as an intelligence officer apart from working on different key posts in civilian departments, had expressed the confidence that he was giving his life in the hope that the chief justice would bring about positive changes in the system where incompetent people were playing with the life and honour of the citizens in the name of accountability.
