Advocate General Shah Faisal Uthmankhel said that the KP government had sent a reminder letter to the PHC regarding the formation of the judicial commission. The provincial cabinet approved the formation of the judicial commission on June 27, 2024.
He said that the KP government has sent two letters to the PHC in this regard, but has not received a response yet. The government wants to uncover the facts surrounding the May 9 incidents and make them public.
The KP government will decide its future course of action once the PHC responds to the letter, said Advocate General Shah Faisal Uthmankhel.
KP govt to form a judicial commission to investigate May 09 riots
Last year in September, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government wrote a letter to the PHC Chief Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim, requesting the formation of a judicial commission to probe the May 9 riots.
According to sources, the KP government had asked PHC to appoint a judge to head the commission, which will probe the events of May 9 and identify those responsible.
The purpose of the commission is to determine the culprits and bring them to before the nation. The letter stated that the commission should be headed by a sitting or retired judge of the PHC.
