The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday said it would take up the ‘Tosha Khana’ reference for the hearing next month, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
The IHC made the announcement after Rana Ibrar Khalid, a journalist, filed the petition in the court, in which he prayed that Prime Minister Imran Khan be ordered to give details of the gifts he had received from abroad.
When Justice Mian Gul Hassan of the IHC asked Rana Abid Nazir, counsel for the petitioner, as to whether the prime minister had also been made a respondent in the case, he replied in the negative and said that since the Cabinet Division dealt with the subject, therefore, it had been made the respondent.
Counsel for the petitioner further said that despite the fact that the Information Commission had directed the government to disclose details of these gifts, the latter had still to comply with these directives.
