A three-Judge bench comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, Justice Tariq Parvez and Justice Amir Hani Muslim on a suo motu case, noted in its order that despite clear instructions by the Court, the Attorney General for Pakistan could not submit reactions of the concerned authorities.
The bench also noted that Director General FIA Tahseen Hassan Shah did not appear and submit report before it as he was required to comply in pursuance of Court's directive of July 14.
A comprehensive report over stance taken by the FIA DG was also compiled by the Registrar office and submitted, it added.
The Chief Justice told Attorney General (AG) Molvi Anwarul Haq that they would announce the verdict shortly but in a day or so.
Attorney General Molvi Anwarul Haq responding to another question, maintained that he had communicated Court's verbal message to the concerned authorities including the Prime Minister, Minister for Interior and others to file reactions over the issue.
He requested the bench to grant him some time so that he could contact them to which the bench asked him to submit it in writing.
The chief justice observed that no progress had been witnessed in the case after transfer of these officers.
He said "Law must take its course whosoever may be involved. Why are you not taking interest in recovery of your money, after all you are also tax payers of this country?"
He said that a report submitted by Zafar Qureshi had admitted that an amount of 1.3 million pounds were lying in two accounts abroad and the money had travelled from NICL accounts.
