The government has formed a five-member commission to investigate the arrest of former human rights minister Shireen Mazari.
Justice Shakur Paracha, former IG Dr. Naeem Khan, ex-secretary Saifullah, home secretary, and chief commissioner served on the commission.
Last month, the ex-minister was detained and abused in connection with a “land ownership and transfer case.” She was, however, released on court orders.
“I was stopped on the Motorway for an hour. A male doctor tried to conduct my medical examination.” she told the court, adding: “They did not have a female officer with them.
“Officers of Anti-Corruption Punjab were taking instructions on the phone. My bag was also searched without a warrant, and I have still not been given my phone back,” she told the court
“These incidents happen when the Constitution is not respected. Every government exhibits woeful behavior on constitutional violations,” the court observed.
