The Supreme Court of Pakistan has summoned details of Pakistani ambassadors abroad with dual-nationalities.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Mian Saqib Nisar issued the directive to the Federal Investigation Agency while hearing a case pertaining to dual nationality holders at the Supreme Court’s Lahore Registry.
During the hearing, the CJP remarked, “There are no laws regarding officers who are dual nationals. We want to identify officers who hold dual nationalities.”
The chief justice directed the FIA to submit details of the dual-national ambassadors appointed in foreign countries, and observed that he wanted the data to be passed on to the government. “The government can use the data to draft laws against those officers who are dual nationals.”
