The Chief Commissioner Islamabad has refiled a miscellaneous review petition in the Supreme Court against its August 18 order regarding the transfer of PTI founder Imran Khan to a hospital.
According to sources, the fresh petition was filed after addressing the objections raised by the Registrar’s Office.
The petition contends that the court’s decision directing Imran Khan’s transfer to a hospital contains legal flaws and that the relevant prison rules were overlooked while issuing the order.
It further states that the Chief Commissioner Islamabad was not made a party to the main case.
The petitioner has requested the Supreme Court to allow the miscellaneous application, permit the filing of the review petition, and reconsider its August 18 decision regarding Imran Khan’s hospital transfer.
On Thursday Supreme Court had returned a review petition filed by the Islamabad Chief Commissioner against the proposed transfer of PTI founder Imran Khan to Shifa International Hospital.
The petition was returned after the Supreme Court Registrar’s Office raised objections to it. The objections were raised over the review petition’s incomplete paper books.
The Registrar’s Office had raised the objections to the petition a day earlier, citing the failure to submit complete paper books along with the review petition.
The review petition was filed by Chief Commissioner Islamabad on Wednesday.
