IHC Voids Chairman NADRA’s Dismissal
ISLAMABAD: Islamabad High Court has suspended notification regarding dismissal of Chairman NADRA Tariq Malik.
The federal government earlier today had sacked Chairman National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) Tariq Malik, citing his dual nationality, and had appointed Director General NADRA Sindh Brigadier (retd) Zahid as acting NADRA Chief.
Tariq Malik challenged his dismissal in Islamabad High Court and sought early hearing of the case.
The IHC bench headed by Justice Noorul Haq Qureshi declared dismissal of Tariq Malik, and appointment of Brig (R) Zahid Hussain as unconstitutional, issuing notices to the federation, election commission, and Brig (R) Zahid Hussain.
