ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Qazi Faez Isa has ordered the auction of two luxury vehicles meant for the head of the apex court by the federal and Punjab governments.
The money, to be obtained after the auction, will be spent on the public transport.
The CJP dispatched a letter to the cabinet secretary and the Punjab chief secretary with a direction to auction both vehicles.
The letter says Mercedes-Benz worth Rs61 million, purchased in 2020, and the bullet-proof Land Cruiser given by the Punjab government should be auctioned and the money spent on public transport.
The letter also mentions that importing luxury vehicles for those on constitutional posts is not appropriate.
Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa doesn't use the two vehicles.
