Case Background:
Imran Khan had written a letter to the then Chief Justice Saqib Nisar regarding illegal constructions in Bani Gala on which the Chief Justice had taken suo motu notice.
In the letter, Imran Khan had said that there is a land mafia active in Bani Gala which is carrying out illegal constructions against which no relevant body including CDA is taking action. Chief Justice Saqib Nisar had sought a detailed reply from the CDA on the matter.
A three-member bench of the Supreme Court, headed by the then Chief Justice of Pakistan, Justice Saqib Nisar, during the hearing of the Bani Gala encroachment case, had ordered that Imran Khan must first pay the fine as he was the petitioner in the case. PM Imran himself had raised the issue of illegal constructions in Bani Gala, he should decide and pay the fine of his house.
