The top court’s registrar has written to the federal government cabinet secretary and Punjab chief secretary, informing them that the Supreme Court purchased a new Mercedes Benz worth Rs61 million for the CJP’s use in September 2020.
The letter mentioned the provision of a brand new bullet-proof Toyota Land Cruiser, Registration No LEG-S00, by the Government of Punjab for the CJP’s use, currently parked in the Supreme Court Rest House in GOR, Lahore. It emphasized that Justice Isa had not utilized either the Mercedes sedan or the Toyota Land Cruiser. The letter criticized the inappropriate use of public resources to acquire imported luxury vehicles for constitutional and public office holders, suggesting the collection and auction of these vehicles with the proceeds benefiting much-needed public transport.
