The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday directed the Chief Commissioner of the Islamabad Capital Territory, Amer Ali Ahmed, to close Monal Restaurant today.
The order was issued by IHC Chief Justice Athar Minallah during a hearing on encroachments in the Margalla Hills National Park. The judge stated, “This court will safeguard the greater public interest.”
During the hearing, the climate change secretary demanded that Islamabad’s master plan be made public.
All the rules pertained to the three wings of the armed forces, according to Justice Minallah, who inquired if they were being followed.
He wondered if the Pakistan Air Force had received approval from the Capital Development Authority (CDA) for the structures it had completed.
He speculated, “It’s probable they have some security worries.”
