Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has been summoned on June 18 by the Supreme Court (SC) in a case pertaining to alleged illegal allotment of Auqaf property attached to the shrine of Hazrat Baba Fariduddin Masud Ganj Shakar in Pakpattan. In this regard, a notice has been issued by the court for fixing the hearing, according to which Nawaz has to appear in person or through a lawyer in the case. The notice further read that the relevant documents must be submitted by the due date, and no postponement shall be given in this regard. It is pertinent to mention here that during the previous hearing, the court had ordered all parties concerned to submit their response on a report of the joint investigation team (JIT) formed to probe the case. In February, Nawaz requested the SC to reject the report filed by the JIT against him in the case. In January, the JIT had filed its report, in which it had recommended initiation of criminal proceedings against several individuals, including then Punjab chief minister Nawaz Sharif, for withdrawing a December 17, 1969 notification and allotting the huge land of Auqaf around Pakpattan to Dewan Ghulam Qutab in 1986, allegedly in violation of a Lahore High Court (LHC) order.
