CJP added Memon didn’t deny consuming alcohol. “I have no concern with how samples of liquor had been transported to the laboratory [for test] or who had tampered with them”, remarked Justice Saqib Nisar. He stated, “Olive and honey came out the of liquor bottles after my departure”.
CJP—while hearing the case about shortages of hospital in Islamabad—remarked if he had indented to arrest the man, he would have done right so then. “I would have had confiscated the liquor bottles, conducted medical test and had him nabbed on the spot”.
Expressing exasperation over lack of cooperation from Sindh govt, CJP remarked proceedings of the cases would be carried out in other provinces if Sindh administration continues to avoid cooperation.
In a recent development, Sindh Police finally found the actual bottles and sent the samples for lab testing.
